Overdue Annual Performance Evaluations for CNAs
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to follow its policy and procedure for conducting annual performance evaluations (PEs) for two certified nursing assistants. Review of the employee roster showed both CNAs were hired on 5/1/19. Record review with the Human Resource/Payroll Manager on 3/9/26 showed that each CNA’s last PE was completed on 7/17/24, and the HRPM stated that both should have had PEs completed in July 2025. In an interview, the Administrator confirmed that PEs are supposed to be done yearly. Review of the facility’s undated Performance Evaluations policy indicated that supervisors are to complete, review, and conduct performance discussions annually at or around the employee’s anniversary date, but this was not done for the two CNAs, resulting in overdue performance evaluations. No resident-specific medical history or condition was mentioned in relation to this deficiency.
