F 0550 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Honor the resident's right to a dignified existence, self-determination, communication, and to exercise his or her rights. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review the facility failed to ensure the dignity of one (R57) of four residents reviewed for dignity in a sample list of 47 residents. Findings include: R57's Minimum Data Set (MDS) dated [DATE] documents R57 as cognitively intact. R57's Final Incident Report to the State Agency dated 4/3/24 documents R57 reported V19 Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) used the 'F' (expletive) word and it is offensive to women. On 4/1/24 at 10:00 AM, R57 stated, There is a male CNA (V19) that comes in my room and uses the 'F' (expletive) word like it is okay to say that. (V19) always brings in another female CNA in with him. (V19) says things like 'F*** (expletive) this and f*** (expletive) that' when he talks to the other CNA and when he talks to me. It is very disrespectful. First of all, I do not require two CNA's to help me with anything. Second of all, I do not allow the use of the 'F' (expletive) word from anyone. I have told (V19) not to say that but he continually does. On 4/3/24 at 10:30 AM, V1 Administrator stated V19 should not use profanity in front of any residents. V1 stated profanity should not be used in resident areas. On 4/4/24 at 12:00 PM, V19 Certified Nurse Aide (CNA) stated V19 was previously reprimanded for using foul language in front of residents and may have used expletives in the presence of R57.

Based on observation, interview, and record review the facility failed to ensure the right to be free from physical and verbal abuse by staff. R45, who resides on the dementia unit, was subjected to physical and verbal abuse on three separate occasions by V13 Certified Nurse's Assistant. R45's hands and chest were bruised, R45 was fearful showing emotional symptoms following the incidents as evidenced by increased behaviors with cares, making more sudden abrupt startled movements when approached by caregivers. These failures affect one (R45) of six residents reviewed for abuse on the sample list of 47. This failure resulted in an Immediate Jeopardy. The Immediate Jeopardy began on 1/9/24 when V13 Certified Nurse's Assistant verbally abused R45 during a shower, V13 was suspended from work 3/13/24. V1 Administrator was notified of the Immediate Jeopardy on 4/4/24 at 10:00 AM. The surveyor confirmed by interview and record review that the Immediate Jeopardy was removed on 4/4/24, but noncompliance remains at Level Two because additional time is needed to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of their Removal plan and Quality Assurance monitoring. Findings include: R45's careplan dated 8/24/20 documents R45 has a diagnosis of Dementia with behavioral disturbance, Anxiety, and Chronic pain. This care plan documents R45 has a history of becoming combative with cares and has care planned interventions to stop care and re-approach when combative.

V7, CNA then added she witnessed an incident the week prior where V13 threatened R45 after R45 became aggressive during care. On 4/3/24 at 8:37 AM, V9 CNA stated V13's tone was very aggressive with the residents. A couple months ago, on 1/9/24, I was giving R45 a shower. R45 was becoming combative so I asked V13 for help. R45 made a noise and then said, oh poo. V9 stated V13 then got in R45's face and meanly said, Oh Poo! back to R45 and then hissed like a snake in R45's face very aggressively. On 4/2/24 at 3:21 PM, V7 CNA stated on 3/6/24 at 5:30 PM, V13 CNA and I went into R45's room. V7 stated they were transferring her to bed and changing her. V7 stated they were talking to R45 and we were trying to get R45's shirt off but it wasn't working and she was tensed up. V7 stated V13 then tried to force her to take the shirt off without saying anything. V7 stated this caused R45 to try to fight her and R45 began to punch and scratch V13.
