Summary
The facility failed to provide necessary services to maintain personal hygiene for a dependent resident by not administering scheduled showers. Clinical record reviews showed that a resident, who was cognitively intact but required maximum staff assistance with daily care needs, was scheduled to receive showers twice weekly on Mondays and Thursdays. However, documentation revealed that the resident did not receive showers on several scheduled dates in May. This was confirmed by the Director of Nursing, who acknowledged that the resident missed these scheduled showers.
