This affected one resident (#105) out of three residents reviewed for abuse. Findings Include: Review of the medical record for Resident #105 revealed an admission date of 11/21/24. The resident was discharged on 11/25/24. Diagnoses included hemiplegia and hemiparesis following other cerebrovascular disease affecting the right dominant side, cerebrovascular disease, dysphagia following cerebral infarction, and type two diabetes mellitus with chronic kidney disease. The resident was only admitted for a short term respite stay. Review of the Discharge Return Not Anticipated Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 11/25/24, revealed Resident #105 did not have a brief interview for mental status (BIMS), cognitive assessment, or mood assessment completed. The assessment revealed Resident #105 did not present any behaviors. The resident required substantial/maximum assistance or was dependent for bed mobility, transfers, and ambulation. Review of the plan of care for Resident #105 revealed she required the use of psychotropic medications with the potential for adverse reactions related to depression. Interventions included administering medications per physicians orders, monitoring resident mood/behavior, and monitoring, documenting and reporting to the physician side effects and unaltered depression. Review of the medical record for Resident #82 revealed an initial admission date of 07/25/24. The resident was discharged to the hospital on [DATE] and readmitted to the facility on [DATE]. Diagnoses included paranoid schizophrenia, bipolar II disorder, and other symptoms and signs involving the musculoskeletal system. The resident was his own responsible party. Review of the quarterly Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment, dated 11/01/24, revealed Resident #82 had impaired cognition with a BIMS score of 09 (indicating moderate cognitive impairment) and no behaviors were present. The resident was independent for bed mobility, transfers, and ambulation. Review of the plan of care for Resident #82 revealed he did have a focus of impaired cognitive function/thought processes and socially inappropriate behaviors. Resident #82's care plan did not have any new interventions for sexual behaviors after the incident from 11/23/24.

Interview on 12/10/24 at 4:00 P.M. with the DON revealed interventions for Resident #82 to return to the facility included continued behavior monitoring, a private room, and the behavioral health facility he discharged from completed a medication stabilization.

Interview on 12/11/2024 at 3:08 P.M. with the DON confirmed the incident required a care plan update, and they would be revising Resident #82's care plan. Interview on 12/09/24 at 1:31 P.M. with Resident #82 revealed he didn't think staff provided supervision, care, and services to prevent resident abuse. Resident #82 also stated that he had not had issues with abuse. Review of facility policy titled Abuse, Neglect, Exploitation & Misappropriation of Resident Property, dated 06/08/22, revealed the policy stated residents had the right to be free from abuse, neglect, exploitation, and misappropriation of resident property. The policy also revealed the facility's procedures included completing ongoing assessments and care planning for appropriate interventions and monitoring of residents with behaviors, including, but not limited to sexually aggressive behaviors (e.g., inappropriate touching or grabbing, saying sexual things, etc.). This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Numbers OH00160335 and OH00160308.
