Continued from 9099... On 01/ 27/24 at approximately 5:30 PM, resident pressed pendant and presented that they were in severe pain and wanted to go to hospital. Resident was taken to the hospital to address their concerns. While in the Emergency Room resident stated that a staff member had sexually abused them. Resident was seen by physician, whose diagnosis was acute urinary retention and rectal pain. Exam did not report any sexual penetration. Resident received a prescription and instructed to schedule an appointment with their primary care physician and was discharged at 11:22 PM, 1/27/24. Resident returned to facility. Interviews with Family Member 1 (FM1) and Family Member 2 (FM2) state that the resident does not remember making the allegation of sexual abuse while in the Emergency Room, and was only seeking treatment for their pain and discomfort, and recanted the allegation to both FM1 and FM2. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is Unfounded .
