F 0600 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few unfamiliar with the hoyer lift and wasn't sure how the hoyer pad was supposed to fit. She asked if it was supposed to be under her neck or behind her head. The CNA #10 without saying a word, reached up and violently yanked the hoyer pad to straighten it out causing the Resident #54's head to snap back. On 06/02/24 at 10:38 A.M., Interview with Resident #54 revealed most staff are very good and kind but there are exceptions. She stated she had been at facility for two and a half years and off the top of her head there had only been one exception, CNA #10. She stated CNA #10 does not take care of her anymore. She stated CNA #10 was not a nice person , she grabbed her by arm when she had a rubber glove on and was helping her turn to get up and caused a skin tear on her arm. She stated she has thin skin. She then stated the aides were putting her in the shower chair with the Hoyer lift (for the first time), they usually use a sit to stand, and she let it down too fast and it scared her. She didn't get hurt. (Resident showed she was about 10 inches from the shower chair) she revealed another staff member was with her. She stated CNA #10 was doing her care once and pulled her hair and stated she didn't know if it was on purpose or an accident. She stated she told on her and she is no longer allowed in her room or to take care of her. She works day shift. On 06/02/25 at 11:12 A.M., interview with the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed one family did ask that the CNA #10 did not take care of their mother any longer. They felt she had an attitude and rough with transfers. There were two CNA's for the transfer. When asked about the skin tear she revealed she had another CNA with her when that happened and it happened when they were getting her up with the sit to stand. Asked about her pulling her hair and she revealed she was never told this. CNA #10 was moved and educated and we have had no other complaints about her. The facility has no hoyer lift policy and procedure. On 06/02/25 at 11:41 A.M., interview with CNA #205 revealed CNA #10 and her were getting Resident #54 up in a shower chair, CNA #205 was holding her back with the hoyer pad so CNA #10 could lower her and she hit the emergency drop button. Resident #54 was about 10 inches from chair. I told her you can't do that. Resident #54 let out a [NAME] but no complaints of injury. Then a couple hours later I was helping to get her back up after CNA #10 had changed her and the Hoyer pad was bunched up under her neck and Resident #54 asked if it was supposed to be like that, she grabbed it and jerked the pad up and her head went back, No complaints of any pain or injury. CNA #10 was very rude and uncaring, not friendly. Felt she was being abusive. The daughter was there at the time. CNA #205 stated she did report it to Registered Nurse (RN) #239 and had to write a statement. Another family also asked for CNA #10 not to take care of their family member Resident #48 because she was rude to her and the family. On 06/02/25 at 12:56 P.M., interview with the Resident #54's daughter revealed she was worried about her mom's safety with CNA #10. The other staff have been tremendous. Wouldn't have her anywhere else. It just feels off with her. Like on mothers day she asked her to get her mom up so we could talk and she said I'm to busy. Everyone bends over backward for mom. I trust them to take care of mom. I feel they have it under control. On 06/02/25 at 1:02 P.M., interview with Resident #54 revealed she was afraid of CNA #10. On 06/02/25 at 1:11 P.M., interview with the DON revealed the Administrator said he did not report the allegation because it was not alleged abuse. This deficiency represents non-compliance investigated under Complaint Number OH00166084.
