Failure to Post Daily Nurse Staffing Information in Accessible Location
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to consistently post daily nurse staffing information in a location accessible and visible to residents and visitors, as required. During multiple observations, the surveyor noted that the designated document holder near the receptionist desk contained only a blank sheet of paper, with no visible staffing data. The receptionist confirmed that staffing information was posted near the employee time clock, an area not accessible to residents or families, and that no staffing data was kept at the entrance or front desk. Further review revealed that a staffing data sheet was present but hidden behind a blank sheet, making it not visible to the public. Facility leadership acknowledged that the staffing data should be posted and visible daily in an accessible location for residents and visitors.
