**NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on
record review, observation and interview, the facility failed to thoroughly investigate an alleged physical
altercation between Resident #5 and Resident #15 in order to take appropriate corrective action. This

time to be done. Praise and reward resident for demonstrating consistent desired behavior. Provide time for
non-care related conversation . Try to redirect undesirable behavior.

cerebral infarction, hypertension, difficulty walking, schizoaffective disorder, anemia, major depressive
disorder, dysphagia, gastro esophageal reflux, restlessness and agitation, tobacco use, angina, insomnia.
Review of Resident #15's MDS 3.0 assessment dated [DATE] revealed the resident had severely impaired
cognition. Resident #15 was independent for bed mobility, transfers and dressing. Resident #15 was
independent to walk ten feet.
Review of the Plan of Care dated 01/16/24 revealed Resident #15 had mood problems such as agitation,
depression, schizophrenia. Interventions included administering medication as ordered, encouraging
resident to express feelings. Invite or assist resident in activities of choice. Observe acute episodes of
feelings of sadness, loss of pleasure of doing things. Notify physician as needed. Psych counseling
services as needed. Staff to provide one on one as needed.
Review of a nurse progress note dated 02/09/24 at 10:08 P.M. written by LPN # 149 revealed staff observed
resident in a physical altercation (no specific details were provided) with another resident in the bedroom.
Staff separated the residents, and left resident (#15) in her current room and placed the other resident (#5)
in a separate room. No redness, swelling or injuries were noted to the resident and Resident #15 did not
complain of any pain. The note indicated the DON was notified.
Review of a nurse note dated 02/12/24 at 12:32 P.M. written by the DON revealed the DON spoke with
Resident #15's daughter to update her on residents refusal to take medications, and physical and verbal
behaviors. The daughter was made aware Resident #5 was moved to a private room per resident request
because of complaints she did not like her current roommate. The daughter gave recommendations to see
if any medication could be discontinued or any given intra muscular. The DON informed the daughter she
would notify the resident's primary care physician and the psych nurse practitioner for a medication review.
Observation conducted on 03/07/24 of the resident room in which the documented incident occurred
revealed it was a large room with three bed capacity. The room revealed only two residents resided in this
room which were Resident #13 and Resident #5. Observation within the rest of the facility revealed
Resident #15's room was on an entirely different unit which was separated from Resident #15's unit by a
large, common area room closed off by doors.
Interview on 03/07/24 at 1:28 P.M. with the DON revealed a thorough and timely investigation was not
conducted to determine if abuse had occurred because LPN #149 never notified her of the physical
altercation on 02/09/24 despite the documentation she was notified. The DON was not able to investigate
the incident immediately to identify staff responsible for interventions, identify and interview all involved
persons, including alleged victims and/or perpetrator and other witnesses who might have knowledge of the
altercation. No incident report was started. The DON stated she educated LPN # 149 and documented the
education that the DON was to be notified immediately. The DON also stated because she was not notified
immediately after the incident occurred, the incorrect resident (Resident #5) was placed in a separate
bedroom. The DON said it would have been more appropriate for Resident #15 to be moved into a room by
herself since she was having some verbal and physical behaviors directed towards others which were
addressed with her care providers.
Interview on 03/07/24 at 3:00 P.M. with the DON verified LPN #149 documented the physical altercation in
the progress note but no incident report was filed on 02/09/24 and therefore the plan of care was not
updated for Resident #5 or Resident #15.
