Summary
The facility failed to properly monitor and document the COVID-19 vaccination status for one resident out of five whose immunization records were reviewed during a recertification and complaint survey. Specifically, a resident admitted in July 2024 had no evidence in their records of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, nor was there documentation that the vaccine had been offered or that historical vaccination data had been obtained. During an interview, the DON confirmed that the Infection Preventionist is responsible for monitoring vaccination status upon admission, but acknowledged that there was no information available for this resident's COVID-19 vaccination status.
