Summary

The facility failed to ensure that nursing staff were working with an active nursing license, affecting all 91 residents in the facility. The facility data sheet dated 1/26/26 showed a current census of 91 residents. An undated copy of an LPN’s licensure summary from the state licensing agency showed that this nurse’s license was suspended from 12/15/25 through 12/24/25. Timesheet summaries printed on 1/26/26 showed that this LPN worked on 12/16/25, 12/19/25, and 12/23/25, all during the period of license suspension. Daily census sheets printed on 1/26/26 showed that the facility census was 67 on 12/16/25, 64 on 12/19/25, and 66 on 12/23/25, indicating residents were present while the LPN worked with a suspended license. During an interview on 1/26/26 at 10:20 AM, the Human Resources staff member stated that the LPN did not inform the facility of the temporary suspension and acknowledged that nurses should not work while their licenses are suspended. The state licensing agency’s frequently asked questions indicated that suspended licensees are prohibited from practice during the suspension term and may be subject to certain terms and conditions. No additional resident-specific medical histories or conditions were documented in relation to this deficiency.
