Summary
Facility staff failed to ensure that residents received showers twice a week, as required. Three residents were identified during interviews and clinical record reviews as not having received the expected number of showers over a specified period. One resident reported receiving only one shower per week, with records confirming 17 showers out of a possible 20. Another resident also stated not receiving two showers weekly, with the same number of showers documented. A third resident's spouse reported only one shower per week, and records showed 12 showers out of a possible 20. The DON confirmed that the shower logs accurately reflected the number of showers provided.
