Summary
The facility failed to provide documentation that two out of five residents received education and were offered influenza immunizations. Record reviews for these residents showed that the influenza immunization was documented as being administered on a future date, which had not yet occurred. During an interview, the DON confirmed that flu, pneumonia, and COVID vaccines are offered yearly in the fall, but was unable to provide current documentation for the influenza vaccines for these two residents at the time of the survey.
