Summary
Multi-resident rooms were found to provide less than the required 80 square feet per resident, with rooms 6, 7, and 10 each offering approximately 71.96 square feet per bed for four residents. Observations during the survey indicated that neither staff nor residents experienced any limitations in movement or care provision within these rooms. Both staff and residents reported no complaints or concerns regarding space or privacy during interviews and observations. Despite the lack of reported issues from staff and residents, the physical measurements of the rooms did not meet the regulatory requirement for minimum square footage per resident in multi-resident rooms.
