Summary
The facility failed to ensure that five Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) received required training on abuse prevention, reporting procedures, and dementia management. During a survey, the Director of Nursing was unable to provide evidence that these staff members, all of whom had been employed for varying lengths of time, had completed the necessary training. The Nursing Home Administrator also confirmed that there was no documentation available to show that the required education had been provided to these CNAs. This deficiency was identified through interviews and record reviews, and it has the potential to affect the entire resident census of 91 individuals.
