- Failure to Protect Every Resident from All Forms of Abuse, Physical Punishment, and Being Separated from Others – citation #F223 date March 3, 2017
The state investigators determined the nursing home failed to maintain residents’ “right to be free from verbal abuse, when the Executive Director threatened to hit [one resident, causing other residents] who witnessed the incident to be afraid, nervous, and anxious.”
The survey team identified an emergency Jeopardy situation when the resident “was verbally abused by the Executive Director.” The surveyor stated that the “facility remains out of compliance at a lower scope and severity of ‘D’ (isolated with no actual harm with the potential for more than minimal harm, that is not Immediate Jeopardy) to complete education and ensure monitoring systems are put into place that are effective related to the resident’s right to be free from abuse.”
A Social Worker indicated that the verbally abused resident had been observed at 8:50 AM “outside the West Wing exit, squatting down between two bushes, smoking. She was asked to extinguish the cigarette and return to the covered area at the front entrance to wait for transit to take her to an appointment.”
The note indicates that the resident “was informed that her smoking privileges were revoked.” The Director of Nursing stated that later that morning, the resident’s Physician notified the Executive Director “that he smelled a strong odor of cigarette smoke in [another resident’s] room, the room adjacent to [the verbally abused resident’s] room.”
After a search, “two packs of cigarettes and a lighter” were found in the victim’s room. At the time of the incident, the Executive Director had asked the victim, “What are you doing out here? Why are you smoking?” The resident replied, “I am just out here smoking one last time before ago.”
After the witnessed verbal abuse, the Director of Nursing stated that “she assured the residents [who witnessed the event] that no one was going to hit any of them and asked [the victim] to go inside.” The Director “told [the Executive Director (E.D.)] that he needed to relax and [everyone should know the E.D. was not] going to hit anybody.”
