- Failure to Report and Investigate Any Act or Reports of Abuse, Neglect or Mistreatment of Residents – citation #F225 date September 22, 2016
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed for [two residents] to report and investigate any allegation of resident-to-resident abuse.” Specifically, “the facility staff documented that the resident attempted to overturn [another resident’s] mattress with her in it, yelled at [that resident] and called her a man. This incident was not reported to the State Agency nor investigated timely.”
A review of the allegedly abusive resident’s MDS (Minimum Data Set) Assessment indicated that the severely, cognitively impaired resident “usually understood and usually understands, and required supervision for all activities of daily living except was dependent on staff for bathing.”
The injured resident “resided on the second-floor secured unit.” On one occasion, the allegedly abusive resident “was observed on the secured unit, lying in bed, with her eyes closed. She did not respond when her name was called.”
A Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) “was observed sitting in the chair next to the bed [and] stated that “she was sitting one on one due to [the allegedly abusive resident’s] behaviors.”
The survey team reviewed the resident’s clinical record, and Nurses Note that read “the resident tried to turn over the mattress [with the] roommate in the bed. She started yelling in Spanish and calling her roommate a man.” The description of the allegation of abuse was documented in the Facility-Reported Incident and Investigation.
An interview with the Administrator and Director of Nursing identified that the “facility did not send the [report] to the State Agency.” The Administrator stated that “he was not aware of the incident that occurred on September 16, 2016, until September 22, 2016.”
