Failure to Provide Required Annual In‑Service Training for CNA and NAIT
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that CNAs and NAITs received the required 12 hours of annual in‑service training, resulting in two staff members not meeting this requirement. Personnel records showed that one CNA, hired on 04/17/24, had completed only nine and a half hours of in‑service training between 01/27/25 and 09/23/25. Another staff member listed on the facility’s staff list as a CNA was actually a NAIT hired on 10/09/24, whose in‑service transcript showed zero hours of training from hire through 12/31/25, despite working a total of 151 days during that period. In interviews, the DON and the Administrator each stated they expect all CNAs and NAITs to complete the required annual training and confirmed that these two staff members had not done so, with the Administrator also confirming that no education files could be found for the NAIT. These findings demonstrate that the facility did not provide or document the mandated annual in‑service education for the identified CNA and NAIT, specifically including dementia care and abuse prevention training referenced in the deficiency statement, as required for staff responsible for resident care.
