Incomplete and Inaccurate Daily Nurse Staffing Postings
Summary
The provider failed to post the required nursing staffing information each day in a location readily visible to residents, staff, and visitors, and the posted information did not always clearly reflect the actual hours worked by nursing staff. From October 2025 through December 2025, the facility had missing staffing forms on multiple days for The Manor, the TBI unit, and the CBU, and several posted forms did not include RN hours. Surveyors observed on 12/29/25 that The Manor and CBU staffing information was posted on a bulletin board near the nurses' station in The Manor, but the posting included the date of 12/26/25 and census information and had no RN hours documented. On the same day, the TBI unit had no posted nurse staffing hours at all, and on 12/31/25 the posted staffing hours for The Manor and CBU again showed no RN hours for that day. Review of the staffing records showed numerous missing nurse staffing information forms across the three units during the review period. The Manor had no forms on 13 listed days, the TBI unit had no forms on many listed days throughout October, November, and December, and the CBU had no forms on multiple listed days in late October and December. The review also showed no documented RN coverage hours on several dates, and the provider's nurse staff schedules showed RN/MDS coordinator C and RN/ADON FF were scheduled on certain dates but those hours were not represented on the posted staffing forms. On 12/18/25, RN/ADON FF and DON B were scheduled to provide resident care due to an LPN calling in sick, but the posted staffing hours were not updated to reflect that change. Interviews confirmed the staffing postings were not accurate or consistently visible. LPN D stated the TBI staffing form was posted behind a desk in the common area, was to be completed daily, and was not updated when staffing changed during the shift; she also stated the TBI form inaccurately showed the nurse as scheduled on that unit for the entire 12-hour shift even though the nurse split time between the TBI and CBU units. The administrator and DON both stated the forms were supposed to be completed daily, updated for staffing changes, and accurately reflect hours worked, and the DON confirmed that the MDS coordinator and DON hours were submitted in PBJ but were not included on the posted staffing forms. The facility assessment also stated that staffing was evaluated each shift and that there was at minimum one RN/LPN in the facility at all times for 24-hour nursing coverage.

Nurse staffing posting missing resident census. The nurse staff posting observed by the DON office listed nursing hours by shift and discipline, but the census section was blank. The DON confirmed the census should have been included, and facility policy required the resident census at the beginning of the shift to be posted with the staffing information.
Inaccurate daily staffing posting. The facility failed to keep the staffing sheet current and accurate for 2 of 6 days. On one morning, the posting was still dated from the prior Friday, and the Staffing Coordinator said weekend postings were left as blank copies at the reception desk and she was unsure whether receptionists knew how to complete them.

Failure to Post Daily Nurse Staffing and Census Information: The facility did not post the required daily staffing and census document during facility tours, and the required RN, LPN/LVN, CNA, and census information was not posted at the beginning of each shift.

Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to include the resident census on the nurse staff posting. During an observation on 7/20/26 at 3:46 p.m., the nurse staff posting dated 7/20/26 was observed on a bulletin board by the DON office and showed the total number of nursing staff hours broken down by day, evening, and overnight shifts, with spaces for RN, LPN, TMA, and NA, but the census area was blank. During an interview on 7/20/26 at 4:00 p.m., the DON stated that the night shift was responsible for posting the nurse staff posting and verified that the census area should have been included. The DON also stated that it is important to list the census and staffing so the information is available to residents and visitors. Facility policy titled Posting Direct Care Daily Staffing, dated 9/27/22, required the form to include the facility name, the date, and the resident census at the beginning of the shift, but the direct care daily staffing posting lacked the census information.

Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to post daily nurse staffing information that included the facility name, current date, total number and actual hours worked by RNs, LPNs/LVNs, CNAs directly responsible for resident care per shift, and the resident census for 2 of 2 days reviewed. During observations on 06/30/2026 at 10:49 a.m. and 12:27 p.m., and again on 07/01/2026 at 09:50 a.m. and 12:50 p.m., surveyors did not observe a document with the daily census and nurse staffing information during facility tours.

During interview on 07/01/2026, the DON stated the document should be posted and that she had to verify the task was not overlooked. She said the scheduler position had recently changed to an as-needed, primarily remote role and the task had not been reassigned after that change. The ADMIN stated the document was typically posted after the morning meeting, that the prior Staffing Coordinator had been responsible, and that the task was reassigned to him after the position became empty; he stated the task seemed to have been missed for the prior two days. Record review of the facility policy titled, Posting Direct Care Daily Staffing Numbers, dated revised August 2022, stated the facility will post nurse staffing data daily and, within 2 hours of the beginning of each shift, post the number of licensed nurses and unlicensed nursing personnel directly responsible for resident care in a prominent location.
Incomplete Nursing Staffing Postings
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure required and accurate nursing staffing information was posted each day. During observation, the daily nursing staffing posting at the nurses station included the required categories for RN, LPN, TMA, and CNA, but review of postings for April through June showed multiple blank shifts and missing RN documentation. In April, 16 shifts were left blank, all on night shift, and an RN was not identified on five dates. In May, 12 shifts were left blank, including 16 night shifts and one evening shift, and on one date an RN in training was listed without another RN identified. In June, 16 shifts were left blank, including night, evening, and day shifts, and an RN was not identified on four dates. The DON stated charge nurses were responsible for completing the staffing posting at the start of each shift and that at least one RN was scheduled for eight consecutive hours every day, with a nurse leader scheduled on day shift Monday through Friday. The DON said the missing RN entries were primarily on shifts worked by agency nurses who likely did not know they needed to complete the form, and stated she did not monitor the process to ensure the form was completed each shift and each day. RN-A stated she had never filled out a staffing posting for a shift she worked, while LPN-A stated the charge nurse completed the posting using the electronic schedule and updated it for call-ins. The facility policy stated the charge nurse was to obtain and complete the staffing hours form on each shift.

Inaccurate Daily Nurse Staffing Postings
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to post accurate nurse staffing information at the nursing stations for 6/17/2026 through 6/24/2026, as required by its policy titled Posting Direct Care Daily Staffing Numbers. A review of the Nursing Staffing Daily Posting showed that the document did not list the actual time worked per shift for each category and type of nursing staff, including RN, LVN, and CNA; instead, it showed a combined total number of all nursing staff per shift. During a concurrent interview and record review on 6/24/2026 at 8:55 AM, the DON confirmed that the posting reflected combined total nursing staff per shift rather than the required breakdown by category and type. The DON stated the posting was inaccurate and should show the actual hours worked per shift, along with the type and category of nursing staff, because those details determine what kind of nursing care is provided to residents. During a later interview on 6/24/2026 at 9:00 AM, the DON stated the daily nursing postings are intended to inform residents, responsible parties, and visitors about the type, category, and hours of nursing care provided per shift, and that the postings must be accurate to prevent misinformation and confusion.
