For the allegation of Insufficient Staff, RP alleged that facility appeared to be understaffed.

Facility schedule shows that on certain days the ratio for care staff and residents will be 1:7 or 1:8. Night shift has three staff scheduled which starts at 10:00 pm.

For the allegation of Staff lack training, RP stated that some of the night shift caregivers were not qualified to meet the needs of residents.

According to records review, all staff go through the required initial and annual training all through their tenure in the facility.
