Timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and report the results of the investigation to proper
authorities.
Based on interview and record review the facility failed to report an allegation of alleged sexual abuse
within the required timeframe to the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH). 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.
On June 5, 2025 at 1:00 PM, V1 Administrator stated, V3 Admissions did report to him that R1's daughter
(V11) was saying that she was sexually abused at the facility. He did not report the allegation of abuse to
Illinois Department of Public Health. He thought since R1 was no longer a resident at the facility it did not
need to be reported like normal abuse allegations.
The facility's report to IDPH regional office dated June 5, 2025 shows, Date of occurrence: June 3, 2025.
Resident Name: R1. Description of occurrence: On June 3, 2025, V11 R1's daughter contacted our facility
between 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM regarding her mother's missing cell phone. During the call, she casually
mentioned- without providing specific details or names- that her mother alleged being sexually assaulted
during her stay Date sent to IDPH regional office: 6/5/2025 (2 days after initial allegation).
