Following is a summary of the allegation and investigation finding: Allegation “Lack of supervision resulting in resident being physically and verbally abused by another resident.”: Information was provided that R2 has been verbally and physically abusive towards R1. It is reported that this has been ongoing for the past few months. Attempt was made to gather additional information about the reported verbal and physical abuse from the reporting party (RP). It was indicated that R2 had “laid hands on R1”. There were no reports of any related injuries, and it was not disclosed what R2 had said to R1. R1 denied being physically abused. R2 denied ever being physically or verbally abusive with R1 or any other resident. R2 expressed that R1 is very aggressive and is verbally abusive towards the residents and staff. R2 recalled an incident happening outside the facility last month with R1 and denied that there was any physical or verbal abuse. Staff interviewed denied the allegation. Staff stated that R1 did report having a verbal altercation with R2 on 04/22/2025 and 04/20/2025 outside the facility. According to staff no physical abuse was reported between R1 and R2. According to staff, R1 has some cognitive impairments and is easily agitated. Staff reported that R1 is usually aggressive and verbal abusive towards staff and other residents. Random residents interviewed did not observe any physical or verbal abuse between R1 and R2. Residents interviewed reported that anytime there is a physical or verbal altercation staff are present and either redirect or contact law enforcement. Based on the above information gathered although the allegation may be valid, there is insufficient evidence to support the allegation or that a violation occurred; therefore, the allegation “Lack of supervision resulting in resident being physically and verbally abused by another resident” is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.
