F 0609 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Timely report suspected abuse, neglect, or theft and report the results of the investigation to proper authorities. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to ensure an alleged violation involving abuse, for one of four sampled residents (Resident 1), was reported immediately but no later than 2 hours after the allegation was made, to the facility's administrator (ADM) and other proper authorities as indicated in the facility's policy and procedure (P&P), titled, Adult Abuse. This deficient practice resulted in the delay of notification to the State Agency (CDPH, California Department of Public Health) and the Ombudsman (an official, public advocate, helps to resolve issues between parties through various types of informal mediation) and had the potential to result in compromised safety to Resident 1 due to the facility's failure to take corrective actions to prevent further potential abuse.
