Plain-language summary
A complaint investigation found that the facility failed to provide bathing services as required by residents' service agreements, with multiple instances where scheduled showers were not completed and no documentation was provided explaining why showers were missed or offering makeup showers. Review of shower logs from late June through mid-July 2023 showed that at least two residents each missed two scheduled showers without staff initials or explanations, despite the facility's policy requiring documentation of all showers and three attempts to convince residents who refuse. The facility stated it had educated staff on shower procedures following a prior citation but the inspection found the deficiency had not been corrected.
“The facility failed to provide care and services as agreed upon in the negotiated service agreement for 4 of 4 residents reviewed. Residents did not receive scheduled bathing/showering services, with missed showers on multiple dates (R1: 06/28/2023, 07/08/2023; R2: 06/28/2023, 07/08/2023; R3: 06/30/2023, 07/07/2023; R4: 07/07/2023, 07/11/2023) and no makeup showers or documentation provided for why showers were not completed.”
