This includes but is not limited to freedom from corporal punishment, involuntary seclusion, and physical or chemical restraints not required to treat the resident/guest(s) medical symptoms . This policy addresses the acts and occurrences that constitute abuse, neglect, exploitation and misappropriation of resident/guest property and suspicious injuries of unknown source; this includes but is not limited to: freedom from corporal punishment, involuntary seclusion, and physical or chemical restraints not required to treat the resident/guest(s) medical symptoms of any type, by anyone; when such acts and occurrences transpire, it must be reported to agencies and officials outside of the facility; the proper reporting procedures to be used in such instances; training of employees regarding such acts and occurrences and reporting procedures; and the investigation of such acts and occurrences and reporting procedures. The policy also addresses the proper investigation and documentation of incidents and accidents involving resident/guest(s) that are not caused by abuse, exploitation and misappropriation of resident/guest property. For purpose of this Policy, the following terms shall have the following meanings: A. Abuse. The definition of abuse encompasses a broad scope of behavior. Abuse is the willful infliction of injury, unreasonable confinement, intimidation, or punishment with resulting physical harm, pain, or mental anguish. In addition, abuse includes depriving the resident/guest of goods and/or services that are necessary to attain or maintain physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being irrespective of any mental or physical condition. Any act considered abusive towards an alert and oriented resident/guest should also be considered abusive to the cognitively impaired or non-responsive. Willful means the individual must have acted deliberately (not inadvertently or accidentally), not that the individual must have intended to inflict injury or harm. A cognitively impaired resident/guest that intentionally hits another resident/guest, may be considered abusive. The following are definitions of specific types of abuse: 1. Verbal- Verbal abuse is the use of oral, written or gestured communication or sounds that includes disparaging and derogatory terms to resident/guest(s) or their families/representatives, or within their hearing distance, regardless of their ages, abilities to comprehend, or the nature of their disabilities.

Using profanity to a resident/guest, blaming the resident/guest for their condition and employee altercations in front of a resident/guest, mocking, insulting, or ridiculing the resident/guest are also examples that could be abuse . VI. Investigations and Facility Response to Incidents or Accidents: a) The facility will report all instances of alleged or suspected abuse, including verbal and mental abuse, neglect, suspicious injuries of unknown origin, exploitation and misappropriation of resident/guest property in the following manner, b) Investigation and Reporting Steps: - Notify the Administrator of any unusual situation in the facility, whether reportable or not immediately. - The Administrator/Designee will report to the State Agency and all other required agencies, per regulations.
