received counseling and requested to refrain from this behavior. However, I do not accept responsibility and
falsely alleging I am the victim in the situations I have initiated.
The facility's undated Final Abuse Investigation Report showed, Residents (R2) and (R1) both attending
community bingo event. Sudden verbal altercation immediately followed by physical aggression when (R1)
struck (R2). Staff immediately separated the residents .
On 10/24/24 at 9:46AM, R2 stated, We play bingo every few days and we always have the same seats. I got
up to go to the bathroom before we started and when I came back (R1) was in my spot. I asked him if he
was going to sit there and he said, Not if your stinky a** is going to sit here. I said, Whoa why are you
talking like that? and then he punched me in the face five times. My lip was bleeding and bruised but that
was it. It's over now but I'm tired of being beat up.
On 10/24/24 10:15AM, R1 stated, They put me at (R2's) table and he wasn't there. When he walked up to
me, he sat down and was running his mouth, so I punched him in the face a few times. He was bleeding a
little from his lip but that's all. I don't feel bad because he has been messing with me for about a year now. I
have had enough .I meant to hit him, and it was intended to hurt him specifically. It wasn't a random event.
On 10/24/24 at 11:10AM, V5 (Registered Nurse) stated, I was the only staff that witnessed the altercation
between (R1) and (R2). I was at the nurse's station while the residents were getting ready to play bingo.
(R2) and (R1) were at a middle table in the dining room and they started arguing and yelling at each other.
(R2) said something like, Bring it on and before we could get to them, (R1) hit (R2) at least 4 times in the
head and face. We separated them immediately and (R2) had some blood coming from his lip and his lip
got bruised. We sent (R1) out to the hospital a few days later for a psychiatric evaluation and they added a
new medication for him to control his anger.
On 10/24/24 at 1:14PM, V2 (Director of Nursing) stated, I was here the day of the altercation between (R1)
and (R2). I heard commotion but by the time I got to the dining room, they were already separated. (R2)
said to (R1), My sister hits harder than you. I gave (R2) an ice pack because he was bleeding and had a
swollen lip. They have not had any issues since this altercation, and we try to redirect them when they are
in the same vicinity. I am not the abuse coordinator, but I see where (R1's) actions are viewed as willful and
intentional.
