Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review, the facility failed to implement the facility's policy and procedure (P&P) for
abuse for two (2) of two sampled residents when the facility failed to investigate an allegation of abuse by
Resident 2 to Resident 1 on 12/18/2025. On 12/18/2025, Resident 1 reported to Registered Nurse 1 (RNS
1) that Resident 1 was getting harassed (to experience persistent, unwelcome conduct that is offensive,
intimidating, or humiliating, often targeting a person's protected traits like race, gender, or religion, or simply
making them feel threatened, distressed, or that creates a hostile environment) and assaulted (threatening
or attempting to physically harm someone, causing them to reasonably fear immediate injury, even without
actual contact) by Resident 2. This failure has the potential for Resident 1 and Resident 2 to feel unsafe and
at risk of further abuse in the facility.Findings: 1.During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the
admission Record indicated Resident 1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included
type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM- a disorder characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound
healing), essential hypertension (HTN- high blood pressure), and schizoaffective disorder (a mental health
problem where a person experiences loss of contact with reality as well as mood symptoms). During a
review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool), dated 12/13/2025, the MDS
indicated Resident 1 was assessed having moderately impaired cognitive (mental action or process of
acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 1
required supervision or touching assistance with eating, oral/toileting hygiene, upper/lower body dressing,
putting on/taking off footwear, sit- to- lying, sit- to- stand, and toilet transfer. The MDS indicated Resident 1
required partial/moderate assistance (helper does less than half the effort) with shower/bathe self. 2. During
a review of Resident 2's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 2 was initially
admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was readmitted on [DATE] with diagnoses that included malignant
neoplasm of vulva (a rare cancer of the external female genital), chronic diastolic heart failure (when the
heart muscle gets stiff making it hard to relax and fill with enough blood between beats), and cardiomegaly
(enlarged heart). During a review of Resident 2's MDS, dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 2 was
assessed having moderately impaired cognitive skills for daily decision making. The MDS indicated
Resident 2 required supervision or touching assistance with eating. The MDS also indicated Resident 2
required partial/moderate assistance with oral/toileting/personal hygiene, upper/lower body dressing, sit- tostand, and toilet transfer. During an interview on 12/19/2025, at 12:50 PM, with Resident 1, Resident 1
stated, on 12/16/2025 (unable to recall time), Resident 1 saw Resident 2 go through her clothes. Resident 2
punched Resident 1 on the chest when Resident 1 told Resident 2 to stop. Resident 1 stated Resident 2
called her a [NAME] (a derogatory slang term often used for a promiscuous woman) and told her to kiss
Resident 2's black ass. Resident 1 stated she reported the incident to RN 1 on 12/18/2025 (unable to recall
time). During an interview on 12/19/2025, at

resident was hit by another resident, then the staff should report the incident to the abuse coordinator and
the three State Agencies (CDPH, local PD and Ombudsman). LVN 1 stated it was the facility's policy to
report suspected abuse to the abuse coordinator right away and to investigate any allegation of abuse.
During a concurrent interview and record review on 12/19/2025, at 3:02 PM, with Social Services Director

Resident 2. SSD stated she was not informed that Resident 1 called the police and the police came and
talked to Resident 1 on 12/18/2025. SSD stated RNS 1 should have reported Resident 1's abuse allegation
to the abuse coordinator and the Director of Nursing (DON) or the ADM will then start and conduct an
investigation about the abuse incident to find out what happened. SSD stated it was important to report
abuse to the State Agencies, to investigate thoroughly and to have documentation on what took place and
to ensure the safety of the residents involved. During an interview on 12/19/2025, at 3:24 PM, with RNS 1,
RNS 1 stated on 12/18/2025, Resident 1 was agitated and upset about her HTN medication. RNS 1 stated
while she was trying to calm Resident 1 down, Resident 1 informed her that Resident 1 was being
harassed in the facility and was assaulted by Resident 2. RNS 1 did not report Resident 1's allegation of
abuse by Resident 2 to the Administrator (ADM). RNS 1 stated that according to the facility's abuse policy,
any report of abuse should be investigated and reported to the abuse coordinator. RNS 1 stated it was
important to conduct an investigation of the abuse to find out if the abuse did or did not occur and to

investigate why the police came. The DON stated RNS 1 did not inform him on 12/18/2025 that Resident 1
reported to RNS 1 that Resident 1 was getting harassed and was assaulted by Resident 2. The DON stated
RNS 1 should have reported the incident to the abuse coordinator so an investigation can be started. The
DON stated it was important to investigate the alleged abuse to determine if the abuse really happened and
to determine if more actions are needed to take place to prevent the abuse from happening again. The
DON stated the facility's abuse policy was not implemented and followed. During a review of the facility's
policy and procedure (P&P), titled, Abuse Prevention and Prohibition Program, revised 8/2023, the P&P

**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview and record review the facility failed to report an alleged abuse (willful infliction of injury resulting to
physical harm/pain or mental anguish) to the State Survey Agency (California Department of Public
Health-CDPH- where state law provides for jurisdiction in long-term care facilities), Ombudsman (OMBadvocates for residents of nursing homes, board and care homes and assisted living facilities), and local
law enforcement (PD) within two (2) hours after the allegation of abuse was reported to Registered Nurse
Supervisor 1 (RNS 1) for two of two sampled residents (Resident 1 and 2) This deficient practice had the
potential to place Resident 1 and 2 at risk for further abuse and/or under reporting from the facility.Findings:
1. During a review of Resident 1's admission Record, the admission Record indicated Resident 1 was
admitted to the facility on [DATE] with diagnoses that included type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM- a disorder
characterized by difficulty in blood sugar control and poor wound healing), essential hypertension (HTNhigh blood pressure), and schizoaffective disorder (a mental health problem where a person experiences
loss of contact with reality as well as mood symptoms). During a review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set
(MDS- a resident assessment tool), dated 12/13/2025, the MDS indicated Resident 1 was assessed having
moderately impaired cognitive (mental action or process of acquiring knowledge and understanding) skills
for daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 1 required supervision or touching assistance with
eating, oral/toileting hygiene, upper/lower body dressing, putting on/taking off footwear, sit- to- lying, sit- tostand, and toilet transfer. The MDS indicated Resident 1 required partial/moderate assistance (helper does
less than half the effort) with shower/bathe self. 2. During a review of Resident 2's admission Record, the
admission Record indicated Resident 2 was initially admitted to the facility on [DATE] and was readmitted
on [DATE] with diagnoses that included malignant neoplasm of vulva (a rare cancer of the external female
genital), chronic diastolic heart failure (when the heart muscle gets stiff making it hard to relax and fill with
enough blood between beats), and cardiomegaly (enlarged heart). During a review of Resident 2's MDS,
dated [DATE], the MDS indicated Resident 2 was assessed having moderately impaired cognitive skills for
daily decision making. The MDS indicated Resident 2 required supervision or touching assistance with
eating. The MDS also indicated Resident 2 required partial/moderate assistance with oral/toileting/personal
hygiene, upper/lower body dressing, sit- to- stand, and toilet transfer. During an interview on 12/19/2025, at
12:50 PM, with Resident 1, Resident 1 stated, on 12/16/2025 (unable to recall time), Resident 1 saw
Resident 2 go through her clothes. Resident 2 punched Resident 1 on the chest when Resident 1 told
Resident 2 to stop. Resident 1 stated Resident 2 called her a hoe (a derogatory slang term often used for a
promiscuous woman) and told her to kiss her black ass. Resident 1 stated she called the PD and reported
the abuse incident with Resident 2 to RNS 1 on 12/18/2025. During an interview on 12/19/2025, at 2:08
PM, with Certified Nursing Assistant 1 (CNA 1), CNA 1 stated, facility staff were all mandated reporters (a
person who is legally required to report known or reasonably suspected abuse to authorities). CNA 1 stated
suspected abuse, or an allegation of abuse should be reported to CDPH, Ombudsman, and police
immediately or within two hours from the incident or from when the staff was made aware. During an
interview on 12/19/2025, at 2:24 PM, with CNA 2, CNA 2 stated abuse should always be reported to the
three State Agencies for the safety of the residents. CNA 2 stated that abuse should be reported
immediately or within two hours even if it was not witnessed by staff. During an interview on 12/19/2025, at
2:41 PM, with Licensed Vocational Nurse 1 (LVN 1), LVN 1 stated if Resident 1 reported to the staff the
resident was hit by another resident, then the staff should report the incident to the abuse coordinator
