Complaint·July 22, 2024

Staff did recall a former resident would enter R1’s room occasionally during the day, but there was no concerning interactions between that resident and R1. Review of facility records revealed R1 was a seventy-four (74) year-old resident diagnosed with several comorbidities, including Mild Cognitive Impairment. An interview with R1 did not yield any evidence that corroborated the incident occurred. When asked If anyone had kissed, or touched R1 inappropriately, R1 said no. Furthermore, several attempts were made to contact the SA, but all attempts were unsuccessful. It was also alleged staff did not provide a safe environment. On 02/21/2024, it was reported to the Department R1’s roommate had been verbally and physically aggressive toward R1, and staff had not addressed this concern. Interviews with several sources, including staff, confirmed R1 and R1’s roommate sometimes negatively engaged each other. These behaviors included arguing and verbal aggression towards each other. Staff had placed a barrier between each bed and had begun to redirect them away from each other. The facility was at full capacity; therefore, a room change was not available at the time. When interviewed, R1 did not recall anyone at the facility, including R1’s roommate, grabbing, nor hurting R1. Based on the evidence obtained, there was not enough evidence to prove the alleged violations occurred, therefore, the allegations were Unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted with Administrator Bond, to whom a copy of this report, and Licensee/Appeals Rights (LIC 9058), were provided.
