A review of the facility's Resident List Report, dated 05/20/24, indicated the current census was 48 residents.
A review of the facility's ABST tool indicated the following:
* The facility adopted the ODHS ABST tool, which included all 22 distinct ADLs.
* There were 45 residents entered into the tool. Residents 5, 6, and 7 were unaccounted for.
* The facility's ABST generated staffing time to meet the predictable scheduled needs of residents 24 hours a day.
During an interview, Staff 1 (Executive Director) stated the following:
-When residents were out of facility at the hospital, Staff 1 deleted them from the facility's ABST.
-Resident 6 and Resident 7 were currently out of the facility at the hospital.
-Resident 5 was currently in the facility but had been out of the facility at the hospital for approximately 30 days. S/He had forgotten to add Resident 5 back into the tool when Resident 5 returned to the facility.

* Day shift (6am - 2pm) : one CG and one MT;

A review of Residents 1, 2, and 3 service plans, dated 05/13/24, 04/05/24, and 03/05/24 respectively, and ABST profiles indicated the following:
* Resident 1's profile was last edited on 05/20/24 and matched their service plan.

* Resident 3's profile was last edited on 05/20/24 and matched their service plan.
