Evaluation dated 11/19/23 at 2141 hours,
showed at 1615 hours, at Room A, the front
door was closed with Resident 2 (Resident 1's
roommate) holding the door shut with her body.
When the front door was opened, Resident 1
was found crying, stating " ...she hit me, she hit
me ..." with bleeding to her face, bilateral arms,
and legs. Resident 1 was transferred to the
acute care hospital for evaluation. Resident 2
was asked why she hit Resident 1; Resident 2
stated " ...because I love her so much." Under
the skin status evaluation, it showed Resident 1
had skin tears and abrasions on the top of her
scalp, face, right and left elbows, and bilateral
lower extremities.
Further review of the medical record and
investigation report failed to show documented
evidence other residents and staff members
who possibly witnessed the incident were
interviewed.
On 11/29/23 at 1200 hours, an interview was
conducted with the Administrator. The
Administrator was informed and verified the
findings.

*The facility failed to monitor the behavioral
manifestations and side effects associated with
the use of olanzapine (antipsychotic
medication) and vortioxetine (antidepressant).

the medication administration record every
shift. Monthly the occurrence of behavior will
be tallied and entered on the Monthly
Psychoactive Drug Management Form in
addition to any occurrence of adverse reaction.
Medical record review for Resident 2 was
initiated on 11/29/23. Resident 2 was admitted
to the facility on 8/15/23.
Review of Resident 2's Order Recap Report
from 8/1/23 to 12/31/23, showed the following
physician's orders:
- dated 8/15/23, to administer one tablet of
olanzapine 20 mg by mouth two times a day for
schizophrenia manifested by talking to unseen
others, discontinued on 10/18/23;
