Examples of verbal abuse include but are not limited to: threats of harm; saying things to frighten a patient, such as telling a patient that they will never be able to see their family again. Review of the clinical record indicated Resident R10 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of the MDS dated [DATE], included diagnoses of schizophrenia (a mental disorder characterized by delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech and behavior), autism disorder, and excoriation (skin-picking) disorder. Review of Section C indicated a BIMS score of 12 (8-12 moderate cognitive impairment, 13-15 cognitively intact). Review of a grievance filed by Resident R10 dated 7/2/25, indicated Resident R10 reported to Social Worker Employee E10 that he was verbally abused by Registered Nurse (RN) Employee E11. Review of statement written by Social Worker Employee E10 indicated, At 1630 (4:30 p.m.) EDT (Eastern Daylight Time) 7/2/25, resident asked to see undersigned. In mtg. (meeting), resident tearful. Resident stated: 'Today when [RN Employee E11] was doing treatment on my back, I guess I may have scratched it again, but she was very mean to me. She started yelling at me, and she said to me' You better stop picking at your wounds or you will never go back home. I have another care meeting next Friday July 11th with the group home staff. I'm afraid [RN Employee E11] is going to say or do something and I will never be able to go back home. She was so mean to me. She was so mad at me.' Review of an employee statement dated 7/2/25, written by RN Employee E11, indicated, [Resident R10] has a large trauma wound on his left shoulder/back. He has increased his picking causing his wound to have extreme delay in healing. On this day [Resident R10's] dressing was removed by him x2 and he picked his wound and caused moderate bleeding and removing tissue from the wound. I have educated him several times that his picking can cause the wound to become infected and delay his discharge. I had to replace his dressing for the third time on 7/2/25 and I did raise my voice to the resident and tell him he needed to stop picking at his wound and that his group home will not take him back until his wound is healed and they do not give that level of care. Resident was seen by psych and his trazodone has now been increased to TID (three times daily). Review of supporting documents attached to the grievance indicated that Resident R10 was interviewed on 7/8/25, at 12:02 p.m., and confirmed that RN Employee E11 yelled at him about picking his wound. He still feels that she will do or say something so he can't go back home. He prefers not to have to deal with her. During an interview on 8/5/25/25, at approximately 12:00 p.m., the Director of Nursing (DON) and the Administrator in Training confirmed that that RN Employee E11 spoked negatively to Resident R10 about a symptom of a diagnosed medical condition, and confirmed that RN Employee E11 raising her voice and verbalizing what was perceived to Resident R10 as a threat to not be able to return to his group home constituted verbal abuse. The DON further confirmed that the facility failed to implement policies and procedures to protect residents from abuse for one of six residents. 28 Pa.
