facility administration was notified by facility nurse that residents (R2) and (R4) were involved in an
altercation in the elevator that verbally challenged her reasoning. Both residents had minor injuries in
reference to the altercation. (R4) was interviewed and stated that (R2) refused to allow another resident on
the elevator. (R4) stated that (R2) became angry and attacked him. (R4) stated that he only fought back to
defend himself. (R2) was interviewed and stated that after she told a waiting resident to wait until the next
elevator, (R4) hit her. (R7) was in the elevator at the time of the incident and corroborated (R2's) account of
the incident. (R6) was also in the elevator at the time of the incident and corroborated (R4's) account of the
incident. On 10.25.2025, at 11:45 AM, R4 said R2 told another resident that they could not get on the
elevator. I told R2, you can't do that, then (R2) hit me and I retaliated.On 10.25.2025, at 2:14 PM, R7 said

broken. I don't recall which hand. I called the on-call NP (Nurse Practitioner) and received an order for an
antibiotic for R2. On 10.27.2025, at 11:08 AM, via telephone, V8 (NP) said I was told that R2 was bit by
another resident and was refusing to take the antibiotic that was ordered by another provider. We all have
