Summary
Facility staff failed to ensure that a functioning call system was available in each resident's bathroom and bathing area. During an annual survey, it was observed that the bathroom on the long hall did not have a call device in the shower area, and the call device in the toilet stall was missing its string. Additionally, the shared bathroom on the short hall was found to be without a call device in the shower area, and two out of three toilet stalls lacked strings attached to the call devices. These deficiencies were confirmed during both the initial and subsequent tours of the facility with facility leadership.
