Summary
The facility failed to ensure that all Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) received the required annual in-service training of at least 12 hours, as mandated by regulations. Specifically, a review of training records revealed that one CNA had only ten and one-half hours of documented training for the year. This deficiency was confirmed by the Administrative Nurse, who acknowledged that the CNA did not meet the required training hours and that there were no additional records of training for this staff member. The facility's own education policy requires all staff to receive appropriate training to ensure resident safety and well-being.
