- Failure to Protect Every Resident from All Forms of Abuse Including Physical and Sexual Assault, Physical Punishment, and Neglect by Anybody – citation #F600 date January 2, 2019
The state investigators determined that the facility failed to ensure that one resident “remained free of abuse when [a CNA] pinched the resident’s face and told the resident to shut up.”
The survey team reviewed the resident’s Admission MDS (Minimum Data Set) that revealed the cognitively intact resident had “verbal behaviors directed toward others (e.g.) threatening others, screaming at others, cursing at others).”
The resident also had “other behavioral symptoms not directed toward others (e.g., physical symptoms such as hitting or scratching self, pacing, rummaging, public sexual acts, disrobing in public, throwing food or bodily waste, or verbal/vocal symptoms like screaming, disruptive sounds).”
At 7:00 PM one night, a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) “called the Director of Nursing reporting an abuse allegation involving [this resident].” The Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) had reported that they had heard another CNA say, “shut up, shut up.”
The reporting CNA said when he/she turned around, the verbally abusive CNA “had his/her face very close to the resident’s face and the resident was trying to back away from [the aggressive CNA].”
The LPN entered the resident’s room and “asked the resident what was going on.” The resident “started to cry and said [the CNA] pinched him/her on the face.” The investigation uncovered that the resident “had a visitor in the room when the alleged incident took place, and the facility interviewed him/her.”
The resident’s visitor said that they were “behind the privacy curtain and did not see anything, but heard the resident say, ‘do not touch me like that.’” The visitor said that “the resident was very upset after the staff left the room and appeared very short.”
During an interview with the allegedly aggressive employee, that CNA “denied telling the resident to shut up or grabbing the resident.” The facility suspended the CNA immediately on December 25, 2018, the day the allegation was reported. The facility substantiated the allegation of abuse, and [the CNA] was terminated.”
The facility Administrator stated that “the resident told him that [the CNA] grabbed his/her face and told him/her to shut up [and] had never made any previous allegation regarding staff mistreatment.”
