This facility failure resulted in emotional distress for Resident 1 when Resident 1 reported she experienced feeling sad and had the potential to result in other residents not being treated with dignity and respect.

She (Resident 2) explained to me that my mom was screaming for help and the nurse (CNA 1) told her to stop screaming. When my mom continued to scream, the nurse (CNA 1) told her if she (Resident 1) didn't listen to her, then she (CNA 1) was not going to listen to her (Resident 1).

During an interview on 4/20/23, at 13:42 p.m., with the Director of Staff Development (DSD), DSD stated, The nurse should never speak to a resident like she (CNA 1) spoke to her (Resident 1).
