Level of Harm - Minimal harm
or potential for actual harm
Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment,
and neglect by anybody.
Based on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to keep one of three residents
(Resident 1) free from abuse when the resident was the victim of sexual abuse by Resident 2.
Residents Affected - Few
This failure resulted in psychosocial harm to Resident 1 and had the potential to result in harm to other
female residents.
Findings:
During a review of Resident 1's Medical Record, the Medical Record indicated, Resident 1 had diagnoses
that included, anxiety disorder (persistent and excessive worry and fear) and aftercare following joint
replacement surgery. Further review shows, Resident 1 had decision making capacity.
During an interview on 4/2/2024 at 9:55 a.m. with Resident 1, Resident 1 explained that when she was in
the hallway, Resident 2 approached her and asked about the cast on her leg. Resident 1 stated, I said it's a
cast and it's very heavy. He asked if he could touch it, and I said yes, and he reached down and touched it
and within a second, he reached up and grabbed my right breast, and I said no you can't do that! He said
please let me touch you, and I said no you can't do that! Resident 1 began to cry and then stated, I thought
I was over this. I guess I'm not. I've been speaking with a psychologist. My guard was down. Resident 1
further stated, I won't make eye contact with any men here now. I have my guard up because I have to.
During an interview on 4/2/2024 at 10:48 a.m. with a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA 1), CNA 1 was
asked if CNA 1 noticed any recent changes in Resident 1's behavior. The CNA stated, We did a transfer
and I asked therapy (female) to help me and even with therapy she panicked and that was after that
happened. When I had done this with her before she was totally fine and then after this happened, with two
people there to help her, she still had that moment of panic. It was after the toilet transfer, and I was
wondering why she panicked, and I questioned her, the therapist, and she notified me of the incident.
During an interview on 4/2/2024 at 1:44 p.m. with the Social Services Director (SSD), when asked how
Resident 1 has been since the incident, the SSD stated, She's been kind of up and down. She has some
moments where she has a tough time processing it. She sees a psychologist here who has a good rapport
and good with sharing feelings and says it's going to take some time to move on from the situation.
During an interview on 4/2/2024 at 9:21 a.m. with the Assistant Administrator (AADMIN), the AADMIN
stated, (Resident 2) has cognitive impairment, so it's inappropriate behavior.
