F 0600 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few the first floor now instead of the second floor. He is allowed to go to activities when he goes up, but someone is always watching him. There was no harm done. Her family was informed. No other incidents have happened like that since then.

He told me that when he sees her, he is seeing his girlfriend because it reminds him of his girlfriend. He has not done this to anyone else. He has not done this again to R4. He is attracted to her due to her similarities to his former girlfriend. He was brought downstairs due to the incident. He is being closely monitored to make sure he does not have any interaction. On [DATE], at 9:56 AM, V8 (Registered Nurse) stated, I mainly work on the 1st floor. I was the nurse on duty when this incident occurred. My aide was the first one who saw the incident and reported it to me. We rushed right over. R5 reached under R4 ' s sweater. They were facing against each other. R5 ' s left hand was already underneath R4 ' s sweater. It was around R4's chest area. I presumed it was on R4's chest. Upon seeing this, I grabbed R5's hand and stopped what happened. R4 is non-verbal and not alert. R4 always smiles. The police officer asked her if she tried to scream or ask for help. The officer was trying to find out if there was any consent. He asked if there was any resistance. First, thing I did was inform my manager right away, the co-director of nursing, and the administrator. R5 is alert but it is hard to understand what he is saying. I worked with him two to three times. Interventions put in place were putting R5 on and a one to one and separate them. Since then, this incident has not occurred again. On [DATE], at 10:19 AM, V9 (Social Services Director) stated, I know R5 very well. He does have issues with short term memory and recall. I did talk to him after this incident occurred. R5 said, I know I should not have touched her. He did not say why he did it. He admits to it, but it does not know why he did it. R4 has always had some cognitive issues. After R4's hospital stay she has declined. R4's family was alright with her having a relationship. R5 has only had this with R4, no one else. Prior to R5 coming to us, he had a girlfriend in supportive living. She passed away and he declined to where he needs skilled care. He is used to having a girlfriend. R4 was flirtatious with R5 before she declined. There have not been any issues with other residents. Just these two. She would smile at him and had a few boyfriends before coming to us. I do not know if they had a relationship before because I do not work on the other side. Facility Abuse Policy dated 11/2017, notes sexual abuse is non-consensual contact of any type with a resident.
