- Failure to Report and Investigate Any Act or Reports of Abuse, Neglect or Mistreatment of Residents – citation #F225 date August 3, 2017
The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to report allegations of abuse.” This deficient practice had the potential to affect two residents. This investigation involved a review of records and interviews by state surveyors and investigators.
State investigators reviewed a grievance report dated July 11, 2017. The report indicates that a moderately, cognitively impaired resident alleged that a Nursing Assistant “was rough, tossing things all over the place in left the resident on the toilet for over thirty minutes.” The Director of nursing revealed that “this incident was not reported to the State Authorities because, on re-interview, the resident denied the staff did anything wrong.”
A review of Reportable Incident provided by the facility revealed “no documentation of this allegation of abuse being reported to the State Authority.” A review of a Grievance Report dated September 21, 2016 revealed that two days earlier a resident alleged that they were slapped, while rubbing the left cheek.”
The report indicates that the resident said “a girl slapped me”, while placing their hands of the left cheek. The Director of nursing stated during an interview that a re-interview with the resident revealed that “the resident story Changing and no determination could be made, so this allegation of abuse was not reported to the State Authority.”
Investigators reviewed an investigation of an allegation of abuse revealing “that upon receiving the allegation, all female Hispanic aides had been suspended pending an investigation.” The investigation was completed with “no findings of abuse.” Additionally, “there was no documentation that this allegation of abuse was reported to the State Authorities” as required by law.
The survey team reviewed the facility’s policy titled Abuse and Neglect from February 2013 that reads in part: “alleged or suspected violations involving mistreatment, neglect, exploitation, or abuse will be reported immediately to the Administrator and to other officials in accordance with state law.”
