Based on interview and record review the facility failed to keep two residents (R2 and R5) free from abuse
of three reviewed for abuse in a total sample of nine residents.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
On 5/2/25 at 1:30 PM, R2 said R5 hit her in the head with an open milk carton and milk went everywhere.
R2 said R5 and her popped each other. R2 was smoking a cigarette outside. R5 said R2 needs to do
something with her hair and kept calling R2 big girl. R5 wouldn't leave R2 alone. R2 pushed R5's face, I
muffed him. R5 threw an open milk carton in R2's face. R2 said there was no staff outside. V11
(Psychosocial Aide/Social Service Assistant) came outside after everything happened. R2 said R5 talks
about her almost every day. R2 said they talk about her weight, hair, and how crazy she is.
On 5/6/25 at 10:00 AM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated the incident with R2 and R5 happened on the patio
during smoking break. The police were not notified of the altercation between R2 and R5. R2 was sent out
to the hospital.
On 5/6/25 at 10:30 AM, R5 said the incident with R2 was during a smoke break. R5 and R2 were on the
back patio. R5 said the staff was not outside with them. The staff was at the door on the inside of the
building. R5 said R2 was asking everybody for a cigarette. R5 told R2 to stop asking for cigarettes. R2 was
being annoying by asking the same people for cigarettes. R5 and R2 exchanged a couple words. R2 got up
and hit R5 in the face. R5 hit R2 back in the face. Staff separated us and told us to stay apart, and only one
of us should be on the patio to smoke at a time. We speak to each other now; everything is cool now. We
apologized to each other. I feel safe. The police were not called. I did not go out to the hospital. They looked
me over to see if I was injured.
On 5/7/25, at 1:05 PM, V11 (Psychosocial Aide/Social Service Assistant) stated R2 and R5's altercation
was during the early smoke time/break. I was outside monitoring. I heard verbal aggression between R2
and R5. They were calling each other B****. R5 said R2 was all up in his space. R2 said she can be
wherever she wants. I separated them outside and monitored them. I did not observe physical aggression.
R2 has good days and bad days. She has the tendency to invade people's space, but I don't think she
means any harm. I have witnessed R2 being verbally aggressive to staff. R5 has no behaviors and is liked
by the residents and staff.

R2's BIMS (Brief Interview for Mental Status) is 15 indicating intact cognition. R2's Abuse Risk Review,
