F 0600 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few 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 a resident was free from abuse for 1 of 4 residents (R9) reviewed for abuse in the sample of 9. The findings include: R9's admission record shows she was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with multiple diagnoses including bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder, other obesity due to excessive calories and polycystic ovarian syndrome. Her 9/2/24 quarterly assessment documents she is cognitively intact with verbal behaviors and other behaviors not directed at others to include verbal yelling out. On 11/2/24 at 11:10 AM, R9 stated she had concerns with her treatment from a night shift CNA (Certified Nursing Assistant), V15. R9 said a couple days ago she started her period for the first time in awhile so she was wearing her underwear to bed. R9 said she put on her call light during the night to use the bedpan, and V15 entered her room to assist her. She said when V15 asked her why she was wearing underwear, she told her about being on her period. R9 said V15 then threw back the covers and said she does not get paid enough to deal with cleaning up someone else's blood. She has also heard the staff calling her big [NAME], and fat. She said V15 makes her feel very insecure. R9 appeared to be young, morbidly obese, alert and oriented. She was not able to propel her wheelchair, and required staff assistance for mobility. On 11/2/24 at 12:24 PM V11 and V12 CNA's said R9 has complained to staff about verbal abuse but nothing specific, just that it involved V15. V12 said R9 reported to her V15 ignores her call light, and not change her, and calls her fat. V11 and V12 said they reported the incidents to V10 (CNA Supervisor) but it does not seem to be addressed. On 11/2/24 at 1:00 PM, V10 (CNA supervisor) said she had not received any reports of verbal abuse towards R9. She had no reports of the previous incident, or the staff calling R9 fat. V10 said if it had been reported to her, she would notify the administrator. She said calling a resident fat would be considered abuse. On 11/2/24 at 1:40 PM, V14 CNA said she works the night shift and has heard R9 complain about V15, and how she downgrades her and makes her feel less of a person. She said R9 is a large person and has bed sores. V14 said she has been walking through the unit and overheard staff being short with R9. On 11/2/24 at 1:16 PM, V1 Administrator said R9 had not reported any incidents of abuse to her.
