reporting of suspected or alleged resident/patient abuse, neglect, mistreatment, and/or
misappropriation/exploitation of property. The facility must provide a safe resident environment and protect
residents from abuse. This includes but is not limited to freedom from corporal punishment and involuntary
seclusion. A review of Resident R1's clinical record revealed an admission date of March 11, 2020, with
diagnosis of muscle weakness, contracture of multiple sites, chronic fatigue, and multiple sclerosis
(autoimmune disorder that affect the central nervous system). Review of Resident R1's annual Minimum
Data Set (MDS- assessment of resident care needs) dated September 25, 2025, revealed Resident R1 had

review of the MDS assessment revealed the resident was dependent for bed mobility and was dependent
on staff for transfers to and from bed to chair. MDS assessment also revealed, dependent status coding

floor. Upon immediate assessment, [Resident R1] sustained no obvious injuries, bruises or swellings,
however she did complain of bilateral knee pain. Physician was notified and new order noted for x-ray of
bilateral knees to rule out fractures. An investigation was started to rule out abuse and neglect, which

bed mobility without a 2-person present and was using her personal cellphone and wearing ear buds in the
