Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment,
and neglect by anybody.
**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
observation, interview and record review the facility failed to ensure residents were free from mental abuse
for 3 of 8 residents (R2, R3, R6) reviewed for abuse in the sample of 14. This failure resulted in R2 feeling
fearful of R1 and socially isolating due to R1's threats against him. This failure resulted in R6 suffering
mental anguish related to R1's threats to physically harm and kill R6. This failure resulted in R3 being
fearful of physical and mental retaliation from R1.
These failures resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy.
The Immediate Jeopardy began on 3/17/25 when R2 reported to V1 Administrator that sometime late
February (2025) R1 had threatened to kill him. These failures resulted in R2, R3, and R6 experiencing
psychosocial harm. The Immediate Jeopardy was identified on 3/31/25. V1 Administrator was notified of the
Immediate Jeopardy on 3/31/25. This surveyor confirmed by observation, interview and record review the
Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 3/31/25 however, noncompliance remains at a Level 2 because
additional time is needed to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of the in-service training.
The findings include:
An initial facility abuse investigation report dated 3/17/25 showed R2 reported to V1 Administrator that R1
had threatened to kill and strangle him if R2 told facility staff that R1 had sold R2 marijuana. The final facility
abuse investigation report dated 3/24/25 showed, on 3/18/25, R6 reported to V1 Administrator that R1 had
offered R6 drugs in the facility. When R6 refused the drugs from R1, R1 became angry and told R6 that he
would knock out his teeth if R6 reported to anyone that R1 had offered him drugs. R6 stated R1 threatened
to break R6's neck and throw you out the window to make it look like a suicide. Per the report, R6 stated, on
another occasion, R1 came into R6's room and told R6, I will kill you if you snitch on me. I have no one to
lose. I will kill you and make it look like you are having a seizure. The final facility abuse investigation report
showed, on 3/18/25, R3 reported to V1 Administrator that he too was afraid of R1. R3 stated R1 hid alcohol
bottles in R3's room. R3 stated R1 is very threatening and intimidating. I don't want to be here if he is here.
Once he threatened to beat me . I am terrified and want to be left alone . He (R1) knows a lot of people on
the street, if he finds out I can get killed easily. The report showed R3 was visibly shaking, when speaking
about R1, to V1 Administrator on 3/18/25. The facility's final abuse investigation report dated 3/24/25
showed abuse was substantiated related to the actions of R1. A police report was filed.
R1's admission Record showed R1 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] for rehabilitation therapy

facility. When this surveyor asked R1 about his interactions with R2 and if he had ever threatened R2, R1
began to get upset and his voice became louder. He immediately stood up from his bed, took a step
towards this surveyor and stated, I have already told this story before. I already talked to the police. R1's
voice continued to raise his voice as he spoke. R1 began walking towards the door of his room. R1 very
loudly asked this surveyor to leave his room. This surveyor exited R1's room.

R2 sometime in late February if I snitched and told anyone where I got my pot (marijuana) from. R2 stated
he had bought marijuana from R1 in February. R1 stated, After I bought pot from him, there were a couple
of times when (R1) would just come into my room (unannounced). I was definitely scared of him then. He
never asked to come in my room . after that, I finally told on him because I was angry from what he said to
me and I was also a little scared of him . Now that (R1) is back from the hospital, I just stay away from him. I
stay in my room to avoid him. I know he has other people (residents) watching me so he knows who I talk
to. I am still a little scared of him .
On 3/27/25, V5 Social Services stated R2 had reported to V5 in the past that R2 did not feel safe around
R1 because R1 had threatened to choke him (R2) out if R2 told anyone he bought marijuana from R1. V5

has been spending more time in his room to avoid conflicts . V5 stated, (R1) is very intimidating. He
becomes verbally aggressive. Staff are afraid he will hit them if they try to enforce the rules. I worry that
(R1) will attack me or other staff . I don't feel comfortable with (R1) and he intimidates me. The dilemma is
that we don't know what to do with him when he acts out other than call the police .
A social service noted for R2, dated 3/25/25, showed R2 reported to social services that a co-resident
came into his room when he wasn't present and the he doesn't want this co-resident to come into his room
anymore .
On 3/27/25 at 12:27 PM, V4 Social Services was asked about the resident referenced in R2's social service
note dated 3/25/25. V4 stated, The resident in (R2's) room was (R1). (R2) came to me and told me that the
day before (3/24/25), (R2) walked into his room and found (R1) standing in his room, talking to (R2's)
roommate. (R2) reported to me that he immediately felt uncomfortable and walked back out of his room. I
think he was a little fearful when he saw (R1) in his room. Since his return from the hospital, we try to
monitor where (R1) is at when he is in the building but he goes where he wants. We have tried to revoke
(R1's) community pass privileges due to his behaviors but he doesn't care. He feels like he's above the
rules and leaves anyway.
On 3/27/25 at 9:13 AM, V1 Administrator stated on 3/17/25, R2 reported to V1 that R1 had threatened to kill
R2 if he told anyone R1 had sold him marijuana. V1 stated all staff and many residents are afraid of R1 due
to his behaviors. V1 stated, We were finally able to send (R1) out to the hospital after he threatened to kill
me, (V2 Assistant Administrator), and our families but he was allowed to return. When he came back, we
tried to put him (R1) in a private room, but he refused. We tried to move him to a room on the first floor, but
he refused. We revoked his community pass privileges but he doesn't care, he still leaves the facility. We try
to monitor where he is every hour that he is in the facility . V1 stated facility staff are afraid to enforce the
facility's rules with R1 because they are afraid he will try to hurt and physically assault them.
2. On 3/27/25 at 10:45 AM, R6 was asked about his interactions with R1. R6 was initially hesitant to speak
with this surveyor, stating, I don't want to get involved. If I say something, there is nothing you can do. I
already made my statement (during the abuse investigation) . R6 continued to talk and then stated he had
been threatened by R1 in the past. R6 stated, One night, when he (R1) wasn't sober, he came into my
room and threatened to break my neck and throw me out a window. He said he could break my neck and
tell staff it was a seizure since there is no cameras in my room. I started yelling and a CNA (certified
nursing assistant) came and got him out of my room . Many residents are afraid of him. He has power and
no one can stop him. He is big and intimidates people . It would be better if he left and never came back.
The police just bring him back and he does whatever he wants . (R1) has said before he can leave people
crippled in a wheelchair or a vegetable, what are they waiting for? Someone to die or get hurt?
On 3/27/25 at 9:13 AM, V1 Administrator stated on 3/18/25, R6 reported to V1 that he was scared of R1
because R1 had threatened to break R6's neck.
3. On 3/27/25 at 11:10 AM, R3 refused to speak to this surveyor about R1.
On 3/27/25 at 11:10 AM, R4 stated R3 won't come down and talk to you guys because he's fearful of his
safety. (R1) is big and has threatened (R3) before. I have seen (R1) drinking (alcohol) in (R3's) room before.
(R3) is timid and shy .He doesn't want to get beat up by (R1) . R4 stated she was the

resident that reported R1 had threatened to kill V1 Administrator and V2 Assistant Administrator. R4 stated,
(R1) was pissed off because he thought (V2) was trying to get him kicked out of the facility. He told me that

(V2). R4 stated she has seen R1 smoke weed and drink alcohol in the facility.
A social service note dated 3/19/25 for R3 showed, Resident is upset and scared that a co-resident (R1)
got admitted back to the facility . On 3/31/25 at 10:24 AM, V7 Social Services was asked about the note she

On 3/27/25 at 1:00 PM, V6 Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner stated he has been treating R1 for a mood
disorder but recently also for substance abuse and his threatening behaviors. V6 stated, (R1) doesn't follow
the rules. When staff try to enforce the rules, he gets upset and starts threatening staff and residents. It's a
big deal. That is why we sent him to the hospital and then he was allowed to come back. He's threatened to
hurt staff and residents. I am very concerned about his behaviors. His behaviors are worsening. I am not
sure if that's related to his substance abuse or there is something else going on. Staff and residents are
fearful of him. He is a risk. His homicidal threats are a big deal.
The facility's Abuse Prevention-Program Policy revised 2/26/25 showed, Residents have the right to be free
from abuse, neglect, exploitation, misappropriation of property or mistreatment . Abuse means any physical
or mental injury or sexual assault inflicted upon a resident other than by accidental means. Abuse is also
the willful infliction of injury, unreasonable confinement, intimidation, or punishment with resulting physical
harm, pain, or mental anguish to a resident . Mental abuse includes, but is not limited to, humiliation,
harassment, threats of punishment or deprivation . Mental abuse is also the use of verbal or nonverbal
contact which causes or has the potential to cause the resident to experience humiliation, intimidation, fear,
shame, agitation, or degradation .

Criminal History Information Response Process report (CHIRP) dated 9/19/24 showed R1 was an identified
offender due to his conviction of attempted armed violence. R1's fingerprint-based criminal history
background check was completed on 9/26/24. An email dated 11/18/24 from the State Identified Offenders
program showed the program had received all of the required information on R1 to process his criminal
analysis security report. The email stated if the facility did not receive R1's security report within 45 days of
the email, the facility was to contact the State police.
On 3/31/25 at 8:04 AM, V1 Administrator stated the facility had never received the results of R1's criminal
analysis security report from November 2024. V1 stated, We don't know if (R1) is a low, medium, or high
risk identified offender. I don't think we ever followed up on this. V1 stated it was important for the facility to
know the risk level, for any identified offender resident in the facility, so they can initiate an appropriate care
plan for the offender and safety interventions for residents as needed.
The facility's Resident Background Checks policy dated October 2024 showed, When a resident is admitted
to the facility, an electronic name-based background check must be ordered within 24 hours . If the
background check response contains convictions that match the Identified Offender offenses, the resident
is an identified offender . Once the facility determines the resident is an Identified Offender, the facility must
arrange for the resident to undergo a live scan State and FBI (national) fingerprint-based Fee Applicant
criminal history check within 72 hours .
The facility's Abuse Prevention Program-Policy revised 2/26/25 showed, The residents have the right to be
free from abuse, neglect, exploitation, misappropriation of property or mistreatment . The purpose of this
policy and the Abuse Prevention Program is to describe the process for identification, assessment, and
protection of residents from abuse, neglect, misappropriation of property, and exploitation. This will be
accomplished by: conducting pre-employment screening of employees and pre-admission screening of
residents .
