Goldwater Assisted Living 3, LLC

Based on documentation review, record review and interview, the manager failed to ensure a personnel record for each employee included documentation of the individual's skills and knowledge applicable to the individual's job duties, for two of two sampled personnel members. The deficient practice posed a risk if the employees did not have the skills and knowledge necessary to meet a resident's needs. Findings include: 1.

A review of E2's and E3's personnel records revealed documentation of verification of skills and knowledge was not available for review at the time of inspection. 3. In an interview, E3 acknowledged E2's and E3's personnel records did not include documentation of E2's and E3'a and verified skills and knowledge at the time of the inspection.
