flippant manner. LPN #415 told RN #320 she never saw Resident #4 undressed but did see Resident #41
sitting on the edge of his bed. Resident #41 told LPN #415 he heard the girls talking and he was not on top
of Resident #4. Resident #4 told LPN #415 that Resident #4 smells, and he wanted her out of his bed. LPN
#415 confirmed Resident #41's bed was soaked, and she changed the sheets. Later that evening she
stated she overheard CNAs talking about trying to get LPN #415 fired for not reporting this alleged incident.
At the end of the shift RN #320 asked LPN #455 to walk LPN #415 to her car because CNA #550 was

down in his bed and then he laid down. Resident #41 stated he wanted to go to sleep, and the female
resident smelled like explicit term. He reported he was next to her in the bed and said she acted like she
didn't want to go anywhere. He told her she could stay but had to go to the unoccupied bed in the room. He
repeated the female resident smelled really bad. When asked if he laid on top of her, Resident #41 stated,
God no, you know the life, she was dead weight. I tried to move her, and the girl came in and it was all. I sat
there (on the side of the bed). Resident #41 stated she had a gown on and was not sure if she had a brief
on or if she took it off, but he denied removing her clothing or brief. He denied touching the resident's
private parts and stated he was just trying to get her to move to the other bed.
