Residents Affected - Few Based on medical record review, emergency room record review, review of a facility Self-Reported Incident (SRI), review of the facility investigation, review of the news broadcast at https://wtov9.com/news, employee code of conduct review, staff interviews, resident interview and review of facility policy, the facility failed to prevent staff to resident sexual abuse. This resulted in Immediate Jeopardy and the potential for actual physical and psychosocial harm on 08/08/24 at approximately 11:10 A.M. when Hospitality Aide (HA) #286 witnessed an incident of potential sexual abuse between Maintenance Director (MD) #300 and Resident #1, a resident with a court appointed legal guardian due to mental incapacity with a known history of hypersexual tendencies. On 08/08/24 HA #286 observed Resident #1 sitting in her room on the floor, with the door closed and Maintenance Director (MD) #300 standing in front of the resident. Upon entry to the room, HA #286 observed MD #300 pulling down his shirt and his pants appeared to have been unbuttoned. The incident was reported to nursing staff and the Administrator and MD #300 was suspended pending an investigation of alleged sexual abuse. The local police department was notified of the alleged incident. On 08/08/24 at 3:45 P.M. Police Chief (PC) #306 contacted the facility Administrator and reported MD #300 confessed to receiving oral sex from Resident #1 on 08/08/24 when discovered in the resident's room. The PC also reported MD #300 confessed to having sexual interactions with Resident #1 for the last nine to 12 months (while he was employed at the facility). MD #300 was arrested and charged with sexual assault of Resident #1. This affected one resident (#1) of two residents reviewed for abuse. The facility census was 75.
