An interview with the Administrator was conducted on 3/29/17 at 10:11 A.M. The Admin acknowledged the environment should be safe for residents. A review of the facility's policy and procedure titled Safety Committee- Composition and Duties, dated 1/1/12, was conducted. This policy indicated, "...Maintain Facility grounds in a manner to allow for the safety of resident and Facility staff..." The Administrator acknowledged that facility failed to ensure that their written policy and procedure pertaining to Safety Committee duties and responsibilities was implemented by maintaining an environment safe for residents, especially those residing on the secured unit where residents have impaired cognition and mental illness diagnoses. This failure resulted in Resident 1 being hit by Resident 2 with a glass light bulb cover in which Resident 1 sustained a serious injury of a head laceration. Resident 1's health was compromised and her highest level of well-being was not maintained.

The logs provided for the same date and times were inconsistent and contradicted each other. This failure had the potential to cause miscommunication amongst staff and impede the investigation by the Department of the incident that occurred between the residents. Findings: An unannounced visit was made to the facility on 9/22/16 at 2:15 P.M. to conduct an entity reported incident regarding a resident to resident altercation between Resident 1 and 2.
