Protect each resident from all types of abuse such as physical, mental, sexual abuse, physical punishment, and neglect by anybody. Based on interview and record review the facility failed to prevent resident to employee sexual abuse for one of one resident (R11) reviewed for abuse. This failure resulted in R11 not feeling safe. Findings include:On 2/24/2026 at 9:15am V20 (Family of R11) said that R11 was kissed on the cheek by V21 (Certified Nursing Assistant-CNA) and the facility make her feel like it was okay, and she felt unsafe after that. On 2/24/2026 at 10:45am V1 (Administrator) said that R11 complained of V21 walking up behind her and kissing her on the cheek. R11 wanted to call the police and we did.

On 2/26/2026 at 2:45pm V13 (Assistant Director of Nursing-ADON) said that V19 informed her of what R11 said she then assessed R11, called the administrator who is the abuse coordinator, and she also wanted to call the police.

V21 made this attempt before, and she feels uncomfortable. V19 said V19 called V13 (Assistant Director of Nursing-ADON) and informed V13 of what R11 said. On 2/26/2026 at 3:00pm V2 (Director of Nursing-DON) said, I was not in the facility at the time of the complaint.
