75	FAITH HEALTHCARE CENTER	425009	617 WEST MARION STREET	FLORENCE	SC	29501	2017-06-14	353	E	0	1	J20Y11	Based on observation, interview and record review it was determined the facility failed to ensure nursing staff provided services each resident was assessed to require. This failed practice was evidenced by residents reporting extended wait times for assistance to be provided and observations revealed staff failing to respond to residents requests for assistance. Findings include: During Stage 1 interviews, four (#s 80, 6, 55 & 57) of 13 residents answered No when asked Do you feel there is enough staff available to make sure you get the care and assistance you need without having to wait a long time? For example, in an interview on 04/10/17 at 11:03 a.m., Resident #6 stated, I have to wait a long time. In an interview on 04/10/17 at 11:19 a.m., Resident #55 stated, for all care including bathroom and just overall care needs. All shifts had a lot of people (staff) quit. In an interview on 04/12/17 at 1:20 p.m. Registered Nurse #3 stated a lot of the residents were high acuity, either due to physical or cognitive/mental needs, and that staffing was based on census not acuity. In an interview on 04/13/17 at 7:59 a.m., Staff Scheduler #107 stated staffing was based on the census and not acuity of resident's care needs. She also stated the facility only had one Registered Nurse to work the floor and that it was sometimes difficult to schedule enough nurse aides. Failed practice was determined during the survey related to a lack of nurse aide in-services; failure to utilize a Registered Nurse seven days per week; failure to ensure proper positioning of dependent residents during meals to prevent aspiration; lack of appropriate interventions to prevent / treat pressure ulcers; failure to provide range of motion services a resident was assessed to require and a failure to ensure residents received dental services. The facility's failure to ensure staff provided the care residents were assessed to require in a timely manner placed all residents at risk for unmet care needs.	2020-09-01
