Complaint Investigation
1 · Investigations

Plain-language summary

A complaint investigation found that the facility failed to provide showers as promised in one resident's care agreement, documenting only three showers in March 2025 when two per week were required, which placed the resident at risk for skin infections and discomfort. The facility attributed the gap to a recent change in tracking systems and cited lack of documentation for some showers. A deficiency was cited and the facility submitted a plan to correct the issue and implement monitoring to prevent future non-compliance.
