Failure to Accurately Complete and Post Daily Nurse Staffing Information
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to ensure that nurse staffing information was accurately completed and posted daily for each shift as required. On review of the facility’s Daily Staffing sheets, the surveyor found that for several specified dates in September 2025, census data was missing on some Daily Staffing sheets, and on other dates the Daily Staffing sheets themselves were missing entirely. Additionally, for multiple dates in January 2026, the Daily Staffing sheets lacked nursing data, specifically the number of hours worked by nurses. During an interview, the CNO and Director of Clinical Resources acknowledged that the Daily Staffing sheets should not have been missing or incomplete but confirmed that they were. This deficiency had the potential to affect all residents in the facility, as well as their representatives, visitors, and others who wished to review the facility’s staffing levels. No specific residents, medical histories, or clinical conditions were described in the report; the deficiency pertained to facility-wide staffing documentation and posting practices rather than to an individual resident’s care.
