**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, staff and resident interviews, review of self-reported incidents (SRIs) and policy review, the
facility failed to thoroughly investigate an allegation of misappropriation. This affected one (#51) resident of
the three residents reviewed for misappropriation. The facility census was 79.
Residents Affected - Few
Findings include:
Review of the medical record for Resident #51 revealed an admission date of 03/14/24. Diagnoses included
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), dementia, psychotic disturbance, mood disturbance, and
anxiety.
Review of the most recent Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE], revealed Resident #51 was
cognitively intact.
Review of the facility's SRI dated 07/26/24 at 2:23 P.M., revealed Resident #52's relative stole a check from
Resident #51 and cashed it. Resident #51 reported Resident #52 had a niece that wrote a check out to
Resident #52's account. Resident #51 was assisted to the bank to file a fraud claim and called the police to
file a report. Resident #52''s niece had been in Resident #51's room helping the resident write out checks
because her handwriting was not the best and Resident #51 was signing the checks. Resident #52 was
interviewed and was not aware of anything. The SRI was substantiated for misappropriation, verified by
evidence and the suspected abuser was prohibited from entering the community until the matter was
resolved. The police were notified, and a bank grievance was completed to get reimbursement.
Interview with the Administrator on 08/13/24 at 2:00 P.M., revealed the facility was notified of allegations of
misappropriation on 07/26/24 by Resident #51. The Administrator stated one of Resident #51's personal
checks went missing and it was discovered being cashed for $200.00 in Resident #52's name. Resident#51
reported Resident #52's niece had been assisting her with writing checks because her writing is not the
best and stated the niece must have taken the check. The Administrator stated Resident #51 was assisted
to the bank to file a fraud alert and called the police to file a theft report.
Interview with Resident #51 on 08/13/24 at 2:45 P.M., revealed on 07/26/24 she reported to the facility staff
that a $200.00 check had been cashed in her roommate's (Resident #52) name. The resident stated she
did not authorize the check to be written to Resident #52. Resident #51 stated the facility took her to the
bank on 07/26/24 and she filed a fraud report, and then a police report alleging Resident #52's niece as the
suspect. Resident #51 stated Resident #52's niece had been assisting her with writing checks recently due
