CONTINUED FROM LIC9099 Shortly after admission, resident R1 gave her notice to facility administrator, indicating that the final day at the facility would be April 15, 2023. On April 12, 2023, R1 anticipated on their move-out date and left the facility to return home earlier than initially planned. Two interviews with witnesses who were frequently present at the facility and involved with the resident confirmed that the period of admission was very complicated and describe resident R1 as being difficult and having a tough time adapting to life in the community. Regarding the allegation that Staff member inappropriately handled resident causing bruising, the following has been concluded: Based on interviews with staff and witnesses, none of the evidence gathered corroborates the allegation of inappropriate handling, intentionally or otherwise. Despite the difficult adjustment and hasty discharge from the facility, resident R1 appeared to remain on good terms with facility staff and residents, for example voluntarily visiting a few weeks after returning home. As a result, the allegation is found to be Unsubtantiated, meaning that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to a facility representative.
