- Failure to Protect Every Resident from All Forms of Abuse Including Physical and Sexual Assault, Physical Punishment, and Neglect by Anybody – citation date #F600 March 6, 2018
According to state investigators, “the facility failed to ensure [one resident] was free from physical abuse by staff feeding him in a rough manner. Also, the nursing home failed to ensure two other residents “were free from verbal and psychosocial stress by staff talking in a derogatory manner to both residents.”
The state investigators interviewed a dietary staff member who was able to “provide a physical description of the Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA)” although the Dietary Aide did not know her name. The staff member observed the CNA “practically shoving the spoon into [the resident’s] mouth, really fast, so fast, he was practically choking with the spoon. He was even trying to push her hand away and turned [their]head away.”
The dietary staff member said that the resident “got some food on his face and [the CNA] took his napkin and cleaned his face and was rubbing his lip so hard I thought she was going to rip his lips right off. The Aide seemed upset about being there and was in a hurry. Normally, most of the aides will take fifteen minutes or so to feed [that resident]. She was done in less than five or six minutes and had a fair amount of food and drinks left.”
The dietary staff member said that they did not leave the area but kept their eyes on the CNA and “said something when she came into the dining room about how she had gotten into it earlier in the day with [the resident regarding care issues].”
The dietary staff member said that “she even asked me if I had ever seen her be abusive towards a resident. After I saw her shoving food on [the resident’s] throat, I went out there and told her, the Aide, what I had just seen and that I thought that was being abusive. It was really weighing on my mind, but at the time, I was not sure who I should talk about reporting this.”
