Summary
The facility failed to provide mandatory Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement (QAPI) training to all staff as required. Record reviews of five staff members' personnel files, including LPNs and CNAs, revealed no documented evidence that any of them had received QAPI training, regardless of their hire dates. During an interview, the administrator confirmed that there was no documentation indicating completion of QAPI training for any staff member. This lack of documentation and training was consistent across all reviewed personnel files.
