The staff entered a resident's room without knocking, identifying themselves, or obtaining permission. This practice had the potential to affect a minimal number of residents. Resident identifiers: #24 and #31. Facility census 52. Findings included: a) Resident #24 and #31 During an observation of a resident room, on 09/24/18 at 11:30 AM, revealed Nurse Aide (NA) #40 walked into the room without knocking, identifying themselves, and asking for permission to enter Resident #24 and #31's room. NA #40 walked over to Resident #24's bed and stated, It is time to go to the bathroom. NA #40, turned around and left the room. A few minutes later NA#40 returned to room with NA #17 without knocking, identifying themselves, and asking for permission to enter Resident #24 and #31's room. The NA's walked over to Resident #24's bed. NA #17 went around to the far side of the bed. NA #40 was on the opposite side of the bed closest to the Resident in the A - bed and the door. NA#40 reached up and pulled down Resident #24's bed covers exposing the resident in an adult brief to her roommate with the door to the resident's room wide open for anyone to view inside. In an interview on 09/24/18 at 11:32 AM, NA #40 and #17, revealed the NA's forgot to knock on the residents door, identifying themselves and ask for permission prior to enter the room. The NA's also agreed they should have closed the entrance door to the room and pulled the curtain between the residents prior to pulling down Resident #24's bed covers. An interview on 09/24/18 at 12:00 PM, with the Assistant Administrator #13, she was informed of the observation above and she stated, I will address this matter.
