This applies to 1 of 3 residents (R1) reviewed for abuse in the sample of 10. The findings include: R1's progress notes dated June 1, 2025 shows, R1 was discharged home on May 31, 2025 after being out on pass with her daughter (V11). V11 R1's Daughter decided to keep her home and not bring her back to the facility. On June 5, 2025 at 9:55 AM, V11 R1's daughter stated, after she removed her mom from the facility R1 told her that someone raped her while she was the facility. She reported that to V3 Admissions. On June 5, 2025 at 10:45 AM, V3 Admissions stated, V11 R1's daughter called her on Monday or Tuesday (June 2nd/June 3rd) to report a missing cell phone. During the phone call V11 stated, R1 told her that someone sexually abused her while she was the facility. She reported that information to V1 Administrator.
