Level of Harm - Actual harm Residents Affected - Few Record review of the facility's Abuse, Neglect and Exploitation policy (PL 2024-14) dated 08/29/24 reflected: Type of Incident Do report: -An incident that results in serious bodily injury and that involves any of the following: -neglect When to report: Immediately, but not later than two hours after the incident occurs or is suspected. Neglect: HHSC rules define neglect as, the failure to provide goods or services, including medical services that are necessary to avoid physical or emotional harm, pain, or mental illness. CMS defines neglect as, the failure of the facility, its employees or service providers to provide goods and services to a resident that are necessary to avoid physical harm, pain, mental anguish, or emotional distress. To determine whether neglect may have occurred, a NF must decide if an injury, emotional harm, pain, or death of a resident was due to the NF's failure to provide goods or services to a resident. Example of neglect: A resident, per his care plan, requires a two-person transfer from his bed to a chair. Only one staff member assists the resident in transferring him from his bed to a chair and the resident falls, resulting in extensive bruising to his thigh that was determined to be a serious injury.

Revised July 2017 reflected: Policy Statement Our facility strives to make the environment as free from accident hazards as possible.

Neglect: HHSC rules define neglect as, the failure to provide goods or services, including medical services that are necessary to avoid physical or emotional harm, pain, or mental illness. CMS defines neglect as, the failure of the facility, its employees or service providers to provide goods and services to a resident that are necessary to avoid physical harm, pain, mental anguish, or emotional distress. To determine whether neglect may have occurred, a NF must decide if an injury, emotional harm, pain, or death of a resident was due to the NF's failure to provide goods or services to a resident. Example of neglect: A resident, per his care plan, requires a two-person transfer from his bed to a chair. Only one staff member assists the resident in transferring him from his bed to a chair and the resident falls, resulting in extensive bruising to his thigh that was determined to be a serious injury. 3.0 Background / History 455621 Page 12 of 16 455621 06/05/2025 Valley Grande Manor 1212 S Bridge Weslaco, TX 78596
