F 0609 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and report the results of the investigation to proper authorities. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to report an incident of a physical abuse (deliberately aggressive or violent behavior with the intention to cause harm) for one of three sampled residents (Resident 1). This deficient practice had the potential to result in unidentified abuse in the facility and failure to protect Resident 1 from further abuse. Findings:During a review of Resident 1's admission Record (AR), the AR indicated the facility originally admitted Resident 1 on 12/11/2024 and readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD-a chronic lung disease causing difficulty in breathing), schizoaffective disorder bipolar type (a mental illness that can affect thoughts, mood, and behavior), diabetes mellitus (DM-a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing). During a review of Resident 1's History and Physical (H&P), dated 5/14/2025, the H&P indicated Resident 1 had the capacity to understand and make decisions. During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS, a resident assessment tool), dated 6/7/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 had intact cognitive functioning (mental processes that enable people to think, understand, make decisions, and complete tasks). The MDS further indicated Resident 1 required moderate assistance from staff for upper body dressing and was dependent on staff for toileting hygiene, showers, lower body dressing. During a review of Resident 1's Care Plan (CP), initiated on 7/7/2025, the CP indicated Resident 1 was at risk for injury and emotional distress related to alleged physical abuse by staff. During an interview on 7/21/2025 at 9:15a.m. with Resident 1, Resident 1 stated prior to 6/30/2025 (Resident 1 could not indicate the exact date of the incident), one of the staff members entered the resident's room and pushed Resident 1, who was sitting in his wheelchair into the restroom. Resident 1 further stated he informed the staff member that she was causing him pain, but the staff member continued to push his wheelchair into the restroom while Resident 1 was resisting the transfer by holding the door frame of the restroom door. During an interview on 7/21/2025 at 12:31p.m. with Registered Nurse (RN) 1, RN 1 stated on 7/7/2025, Resident 1 approached RN 1 in the nursing station and reported a staff member knocked him down and pushed his legs intentionally. RN 1 further stated after the abuse report staff members were interviewed as part of facilities internal abuse investigation. During an interview on 7/21/2025 at 1:40p.m. with Certified Nurse Assistant (CNA) 1, CNA 1 stated prior to 6/23/2025 (CNA 1 could not indicate the exact date), Resident 1 had informed her that a staff member had pushed him into the restroom causing pain. CNA 1 further stated she did not report the incident. CNA 1 stated pushing a person and causing pain can be considered a potential form of a physical abuse and she should have reported the incident to her supervisor. CNA 1 further stated failure to report the incident could potentially result in Resident 1 experiencing further abuse. During a follow up interview on 7/21/2025 at 3:11p.m. with RN 1, RN 1 stated pushing a person and causing pain was a potential incident of a physical abuse. RN 1 further stated CNA 1 should have reported the incident to the charge nurse and supervision.
