me back. The next day (V1 Administrator) called me and told me that she had talked with (R1) and she
didn't think it was abuse. We met with (V1) and told her what (R1) told us and then she said she would
investigate it.

On 5/27/25 at 11:52 AM, V5 CNA stated she was told by R1 that an employee had abused her by punching
her in the chest. V5 stated She used that word, abused. (R1) seemed to be in her right mind and she asked
me what she should do about it. I told her that I would report it to (V1) the Administrator and I did. I don't
know what happened from there, I was never asked about it again.
On 5/27/25 at 10:35AM, V1 Administrator stated she was told of the incident by V5 CNA on 5/8/25 and that
she decided to complete a grievance instead of an abuse investigation.
On 5/27/25 at 10:45AM, V4 CNA stated, That day I had (V3 CNA) go in with me to change R1 because she
hits sometimes when being changed. When she started hitting, V3 held R1 down with her arms crossed
over her chest so that I could change R1. We should have asked R1 to stop, or left and got someone else. I
had never seen V3 do that to a resident before.
On 5/27/25 at 11:30AM, V1 Administrator stated that the abuse should have been investigated as abuse as
soon as V5 CNA reported it to V1 and that Knowing what I know now, it was abusive.
On 5/27/25 at 11:45AM, V2 Director of Nursing stated the staff are not trained to grab and hold resident's
bodies down so they can change them and that they need further education regarding abuse prevention
and the abuse policy.

authorities.
Based on observation, interview and record review the facility failed to report an allegation of abuse to the
State Agency in a timely manner for one (R1) of three residents reviewed for abuse from a total sample list
of nine residents reviewed.
Findings include:
The facility Abuse Prevention and Reporting-Illinois Policy dated 5/2025 documents the facility affirms the
right of our residents to be free from abuse. The purpose of this policy is to assure that the facility is doing
all that is within its control to prevent abuse by staff and mistreatment of residents. This will be done by
identifying occurrences and patterns of potential mistreatment, immediately protecting residents involved in
identified reports of possible abuse and implementing systems to promptly and aggressively investigate all
reports and allegations of abuse and making the necessary changes to prevent future occurrences and
filing accurate and timely investigative reports. Physical abuse is defined in this policy as the infliction of
injury on a resident that occurs other than by accidental means including hitting, slapping, pinching, kicking
and controlling behavior. When an allegation of abuse has occurred, the resident's representative and the
(State Agency) shall be informed by telephone or fax. (The State Agency) shall be informed that an
occurrence of potential abuse, has been reported and is being investigated.
The facility provided grievance form dated 5/8/25 documents sensitivity to R1's breastbone area due to V3
Certified Nurses Aide (CNA) being too rough with her.
On 5/27/25 at 10:40AM, R1 stated, That day there were two girls in here changing me and (V3) pushed
down here (pointing to her sternum) real hard. R1's sternum appears to be very bony. R1 stated I feel like it
was abusive and that other girl just watched her do it, it upset me.
On 5/27/25 at 10:45AM, V4 CNA stated, That day I had (V3 CNA) go in with me to change (R1) because
she hits sometimes when being changed. When she started hitting, (V3) held (R1) down with her arms
crossed over her chest so that I could change (R1). We should have asked (R1) to stop, or left and got

On 5/27/25 at 11:52 AM, V5 CNA stated she was told by R1 on 5/8/25 shortly after breakfast that an
employee had abused her by punching her in the chest. V5 stated I told her that I would report it to (V1
Administrator) and I did.
The facility provided abuse investigation documents an initial report of abuse to the state agency on 5/9/25
at 1:27PM.
On 5/27/25 at 10:35AM, V1 Administrator stated she chose to fill out a grievance form on 5/8/25 instead of
implementing an abuse investigation for R1's allegation of abuse. I didn't turn it into an abuse investigation
until I spoke with the family the next day.
On 5/27/25 at 11:30AM, V1 Administrator stated the abuse allegation should have been reported as abuse
(to the state agency) as soon as V5 CNA reported it to her.
