Summary

The facility failed to ensure that its certified nurse aides (CNAs) received the required 12 hours of in-service training per year. Personnel records for two CNAs showed that each received only 4.5 hours of in-service training within their first year of employment, and all of these hours occurred in the following calendar year. There was no evidence of any in-service education provided to CNAs prior to that year. This deficiency was confirmed during an interview with the Administrator, who acknowledged the lack of required in-service hours for the CNAs in question. This lapse in training had the potential to affect all 79 residents in the facility, as the required education in dementia care and abuse prevention was not documented as completed for the CNAs reviewed.
