Summary
The facility failed to implement a nurse aide training program that ensures continued competence equivalent to at least 12 hours per year, as required. During interviews and record reviews, the Administrator was unable to provide evidence of recent nurse aide training and was unaware of when staff last received such training. Additionally, the Vice President of Clinical Services confirmed that there was no available policy regarding nurse aide training. At the time of the survey, the facility had 57 residents and 90 licensed beds for long-term care nursing services, but lacked documentation or reproducible evidence to support that nurse aide training had occurred.
