F 0600 Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment, and neglect by anybody. Level of Harm - Immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on observations, interviews, and record reviews, the facility failed to: Residents Affected - Some 1. Protect a resident's right to be free of sexual and mental abuse from staff and other residents. This failure resulted in R1 being inappropriately touched by V8 (CNA-Certified Nursing Assistant) in the shower and being subjected (verbally and via phone message) to inappropriate and lewd comments of a sexual nature about R1's body. This failure also resulted in R1 being exposed to R6, who formerly sexually abused R1. R6 was in close proximity to R1 without supervision. These failures caused R1 to experience emotional distress and feel unsafe in the facility and caused her to discharge herself AMA (against medical advice). 2. Protect a resident's right to be free from physical abuse by a resident and failed to protect residents from further abuse from the abusive resident. This failure resulted in R5 hitting R7, R5 hitting R4 twice within two days, and R5 hitting R6 between 2/5/25 and 2/20/25. This failure also resulted in R2 being hit by R3. This failure resulted in Immediate Jeopardy. The Immediate Jeopardy began on 2/16/25 when R1 was sexually and mentally abused by V8. V1 (Administrator) was notified of the Immediate Jeopardy on 2/26/25 at 9:45 AM. The surveyor confirmed by observation, interviews, and record review that the Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 2/27/25, but noncompliance remains at Level Two because additional time is needed to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of the interventions and in-service training. This applies to 5 of 5 residents (R1, R2, R4, R6, and R7) reviewed for abuse in a sample of 16. The findings include: 1. Facility Final Investigation Report Form, submitted 8/26/24, shows the facility substantiated that R6 sexually abused R1. R1's Face sheet, dated 2/20/25, shows R1's diagnoses include Huntington's disease, major depressive disorder, and suicide ideation and attempt. The face sheet shows R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] and discharged on 2/18/25. MDS (Minimum Data Set), dated 2/5/25, shows R1 was cognitively intact and required supervision or touching assistance for bathing, hygiene, and lower body dressing. Face sheet, dated 2/25/25, shows R6's diagnoses include alcohol abuse, depression, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. MDS, dated [DATE], shows R6 was cognitively intact and was able to independently ambulate. Care plan, initiated 8/22/24, shows R6 was admitted to the facility with a (continued on next page) Any deficiency statement ending with an asterisk (*) denotes a deficiency which the institution may be excused from correcting providing it is determined that other safeguards provide sufficient protection to the patients. (See instructions.) Except for nursing homes, the findings stated above are disclosable 90 days following the date of survey whether or not a plan of correction is provided.
