This failure had the potential to effect 10 of 10 residents residing on the 2nd floor of the facility. This has the potential to effect more than an isolated number of Residents. Facility Census: 57. Findings included: a) A tour of the second (2nd) floor of the facility with the Nursing Home Administrator (NHA) on 04/10/19 at 11:20 a.m. found there were no handrails in the corridors. When asked about this the NHA stated, Yes we know that we need to get hand rails up here. We have talked to the owners and will hopefully have some soon. She further stated, We have never had handrails up here but definitely need too. b) An additional interview with the NHA found that the 2nd floor unit has always been designated as a long term care unit. It has not always had residents on the unit but it has always been designated for long term care residents. | 2020-09-01 |
