Summary
The facility failed to provide an adequate number of nursing staff to meet resident needs every day, as required. Payroll Based Journal (PBJ) data for Quarter 2, 2024, revealed excessively low staffing levels on weekends. During an interview, the Administrator confirmed that the previous owner did not permit the use of agency staff or allow licensed staff to work as Nursing Assistants, which contributed to the insufficient staffing. The facility's mandatory PBJ submissions to CMS reflected these staffing shortages, particularly on weekends, during the specified quarter. No information about specific residents, their medical history, or their condition at the time of the deficiency was provided in the report.
