**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
interview, record review, and review of the Self-Reported Incident (SRI) number (#)238223 the facility failed
to ensure Residents #39 and #42 were treated with respect and dignity. This affected two residents (#39
and #42) of four residents reviewed for dignity and respect (#14, #27, #39 and #42). The facility census was
58.
Findings include:
Interview on 11/06/23 at 9:05 A.M. with Resident #39 reported an (unnamed) agency State Tested Nursing
Assistant (STNA) pushed a tray cart into Resident #39 which caused a cut to the arm. The STNA had an
attitude and complained about things.
Review of the medical record for Resident #39 revealed an admission date of 08/25/21. Diagnoses included
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cognitive communication deficit, lymphedema, anxiety disorder,
rheumatoid arthritis, tracheostomy status, chronic respiratory failure, and morbid severe obesity due to
excess calories.
Review of the Medicare 5-day Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment dated [DATE] revealed Resident #39
had no cognitive impairment. Resident #39 was dependent on staff for toileting, dressing and bed mobility.
Set-up assistance was required for locomotion using a motorized wheelchair.
Review of the skin/wound evaluation dated 08/17/23 revealed a new area was noted. Two bruises with a
small skin tear were in the center of Resident #39's right posterior forearm.
Review of Resident #39's progress notes for August 2023 revealed on 08/17/23 there was an altercation
between Resident #39 and an unnamed agency STNA. Resident #39 reported talking to a different
unnamed non-agency STNA while the agency STNA pushed the food cart. The non-agency STNA brought
Resident #39's dinner tray into the room. The agency STNA followed behind the non-agency STNA and
stated, what the [expletive] is your problem. The argument escalated and Resident #39 asked the agency
STNA to leave the room and the agency STNA replied, I don't have to. Shortly thereafter, Resident #39 was
in the hallway and the agency STNA stated, excuse me. Resident #39 indicated to wait, and then the
agency STNA rammed the food cart into Resident #39 which caused bruising and a small skin tear to the
right forearm. Resident #39 and the agency STNA were told to quit yelling and cursing, and the agency
STNA was asked to leave the area.
Review of SRI #238223 dated 08/17/23 revealed the alleged wrong doer was STNA #464. The witness
statement dated 08/17/23 from STNA #464 indicated while passing dinner trays, Resident #39 was talking

bad about STNA #464 to STNA #443 so STNA #464 confronted Resident #39 by asking was there a
problem with me. Resident #39 started cursing and calling STNA #464 a black [expletive] while demanding
STNA #464 leave the room. As STNA #464 continued to pass meal trays, Resident #39 continued to curse
and call STNA #464 names in the hall. Resident #39 tried to take the food cart and a tray almost fell, so
STNA #464 moved the cart out of Resident #39's way so the dinner trays would not be destroyed. The
witness statement dated 08/17/23 from Resident #39 indicated words were had in the hallway with STNA
#464, then while in Resident #39's room talking with STNA #443, STNA #464 entered the room yelling and
asked what Resident #39's problem was. Resident #39 and STNA #464 yelled and cursed at each other.
Resident #39 asked STNA #464 to leave the room three times and STNA #464 responded not having to.
Resident #39 then left the room and sat in the hallway. STNA #464 came up behind Resident #39 and said,
excuse me. Resident #39 stated, hold on, because of the power chair, then STNA #464 ran the food cart
into Resident #39's arm which caused a cut. Resident #39 and STNA #464 yelled and cursed at each other
again before both left the area. The witness statement dated 08/17/23 from STNA #443 indicated being in
Resident #39's room when STNA #464 entered yelling and getting in Resident #39's face asking if Resident
#39 had a problem while swearing at Resident #39 who then told STNA #464 to get out of the room, but
STNA #464 continued to yell and swear. STNA #464 continued to yell and swear at Resident #39 while
pushing the food cart of dinner trays. The food cart was then pushed into Resident #39 which caused a cut
on Resident #39's arm and spilled drinks on the dinner trays while STNA #464 was still yelling and
swearing. STNA #443 went to find the (unnamed) nurse. The witness statement dated 08/17/23 from
Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) #423 indicated STNA #443 reported an altercation between Resident #39
and STNA #464. When LPN #423 arrived in the hallway both Resident #39 and STNA #464 were yelling
and cursing. Resident #39 reported STNA #464 hit Resident #39 with the food cart. Resident #39's arm
had a scant amount of blood, a small skin tear, and scattered bruising. LPN #423 separated Resident #39
and STNA #464 by having them leave the area. The witness statement dated 08/17/23 from STNA #436
indicated while in a substation in the area Resident #39 and STNA #464 were heard arguing followed by a
crash in the hallway and continued arguing. Resident #39 reported STNA #464 hit Resident #39 with the
food cart. Interviews were conducted with all residents able to answer questions which resulted in no
concerns except for Resident #42. The interview with Resident #42 dated 08/18/23 from Resident #42
indicated feeling mistreated by STNA #464 who Resident #42 felt was rude.
Review of Resident #39's progress notes for August 2023 revealed after the altercation on 08/17/23,
Resident #39 declined law enforcement notification and reported doing well and feeling safe. Resident #39
was apologetic for the incident and reported being upset by STNA #464 for being lazy and doing anything
while watching other nursing assistants run around.
Interview on 11/07/23 at 3:14 P.M. with Administrator revealed there were no witnesses who saw STNA
#464 hit Resident #39 with the cart so it could not be determined if it was purposeful. STNA #464 reported
Resident #39 tried to grab the cart, but Resident #39 denied it. Resident #39 was not aggressive, so it was
unlikely Resident #39 grabbed the food cart. It was more likely STNA #464 was impatient and did not wait
long enough for Resident #39 to move out of the way of the food cart. Administrator verified STNA #464
was an agency aide who was no longer permitted to return to the facility, and due to the altercation on
08/17/23 was terminated from the agency because of poor customer service. Resident #42 was no longer
in the facility but reported on the date of the incident, STNA #464 was rude because STNA #464 entered
the room, set the dinner tray down and left without speaking to Resident #42.
Interview on 11/07/23 at 3:21 P.M. with STNA #443 stated being in Resident #39's room on 08/17/23 talking
to Resident #39 about Resident #39 not liking STNA #464's demeanor. STNA #464 barged into
