understand boundaries Interject and gently guide resident to appropriate distance from others . R2's Care
Plan has not been updated and no new interventions were added since 3/16/23.
The facility's Abuse Prevention Program revised on 11/28/16 shows, The facility affirms the right of our
residents to be free from abuse .Abuse is the willful injection of injury, unreasonable confinement,
intimidation, or punishment with resulting physical harm, pain or mental anguish Willful as used in this
definition of abuse, means the individual must have acted deliberately, not that the individual must have
intended to inflict injury or harm Physical Abuse includes hitting, slapping, pinching, kicking, and controlling
behavior through corporal punishment. Sexual Abuse is non-consensual sexual contact of any type with a
resident Resident Assessment staff will identify residents with increased vulnerability for abuse or who have
needs and behaviors that might lead to conflict. Through the care planning process, staff will identify any
problems, goals, and approaches, which would reduce the chances of mistreatment, neglect, and abuse of
these residents .
