Failure to Provide Scheduled Showers for Dependent Resident
Penalty
Summary
A resident who required staff assistance with activities of daily living, specifically showering, was not provided with the scheduled number of showers. The resident, who had been in the facility since June 2025, expressed a desire for more frequent showers during an interview. Review of the Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment confirmed the resident's need for staff assistance with showering. Documentation from July to August 2025 showed no showers in July and only one shower in August, despite the resident being scheduled for two showers per week. Staff interviews confirmed the resident's shower schedule and the lack of documentation for showers provided during this period. The Director of Nursing acknowledged that only one shower was documented between July 1 and August 25, 2025.
