  • The nursing home “failed to evidence results of an investigation that were reported to the required state agency within five working days.”
  • The facility staff “failed to evidence that policies and procedures were followed to report an allegation of abuse within the two hour time frame and failed to submit a follow-up report within five working days to the State Agency and two other officials for [the resident’s] allegation of abuse reported to the facility staff.”
