What the official deficiency says
When regular staff members are absent, there shall be coverage by personnel with qualifications adequate to perform the assigned tasks. This requirement is not met as evidenced by: Based on CW's observation, there was not staff present nearby resident when CW arrived. Licensee did not ensure that there is a staff present when another staff left the facility. This poses a potential health and safety risk to the resident in care
Official plan of correction
Administrator agreed to submit a statement of understanding the regulation cited and ensure that there is adequate coverage when a staff is absent at the facility and submit to CCL on or before the POC date.
Deadline recorded: Nov 15, 2021. A deadline is not proof that correction was completed.
