Summary
The facility failed to provide accurate daily postings of nurse staffing information, as required. During the annual survey, a review of nursing staffing data and time and attendance reports for 15 selected days revealed discrepancies on 14 days, where the posted nurse staffing hours for RNs, LPNs, and Certified Nurse Aides did not match the actual hours worked according to time and attendance records. For example, on several dates, the posted hours were significantly higher than the hours documented in the attendance system. When these inconsistencies were presented to the Director of Nursing, no explanation was provided for the differences.
