Summary
The facility failed to ensure that a licensed nurse was trained and competent in using the electronic Point Click Care (PCC) system for documentation and care coordination. According to the facility's policy and procedure, competency evaluations, including training on documentation tools and equipment, were to be conducted upon hire, annually, and as needed. However, during interviews, a licensed nurse supervisor reported not receiving any formal training on the PCC system, and the interim director of nursing confirmed that there were no available records indicating that staff had received such training. This lack of documented training and competency evaluation led to the deficiency.
