Summary
The facility failed to provide enough nursing staff each day to meet the needs of every resident and did not ensure that a licensed nurse was in charge on each shift. This deficiency was identified through observations and review of staffing patterns, which showed that staffing levels were insufficient to meet resident care needs and that there were shifts without a licensed nurse in charge. These findings indicate that the facility did not comply with requirements to maintain adequate nursing coverage and supervision for residents at all times.
