The facility failed to ensure residents were not referred to using labels in a setting in which others could overhear. The facility also failed to ensure staff conducted themselves in respectful manner in the dining room, in the presence of the residents eating there. In addition, the facility failed to ensure staff knocked on a resident's door, or otherwise asked for permission to enter,prior to entering the resident's room. These practices had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Resident identifier: #166. Facility census: 118.

On 03/26/15 at 12:40 p.m., the Director of Nursing (DON), was made aware of the observation and the NA's response.

On 03/23/15 at 1:57 p.m., upon inquiry as to the way in which a resident's room should be entered by staff, NA #50 said, Knock first or announce yourself.
