On Sunday 06/30/2024 at 8 PM, staff S1 heard sounds coming from the living unit of resident R1 that sounded like R1's Private Duty Care Giver (PDCG1) was verbally abusing R1 and throwing around objects in R1's living unit. Staff S1 stood outside of R1's living unit and made video recordings that captured the sounds of PDCG1's voice while PDCG1 was verbally abusing R1 and the sounds of objects being thrown around in the living unit. The SOC341 stated that R1 reported to facility staff that PDCG1 hit R1 in the lower right leg.
