Based on interview and record review the facility failed to implement its abuse prevention program policy
and procedure by failing to verify potential candidate's background check for a history of abuse, neglect, or
mistreatment prior to the employee start working in the facility for one Certi?ed Nursing Assistant (CNA
1).This failure had the potential for mistreatment, neglect, misappropriation of property, and abuse of
residents.Findings:During a concurrent interview and record review on 9/16/2025 at 2:01 p.m. with the
Director of Staff Development (DSD) of CNA 1 file, it indicated CNA 1 was hired on 1/7 2025. CNA 1 had
been working with a registered sex offender background record and that did not match the CNA's name or
date of birth matching with their California identi?cation card. The DSD stated that the pre-employment
veri?cation process should have accurate and stated the CNA's name and date of birth before the
employee's start date. The DSD stated, she was unsure how the document indicating a registered sex
offender ended up in the CNA's employee ?le.During an interview with the Director of Nurses (DON)
9/16/2025, at 2:43 PM,DON stated that when there is no employee background check done this puts the
residents at risk of abuse, and is a safety concern. The DON stated she did not see the registered sex
offender record in the chart and stated she did not recognize the individual's picture on the record.During a
review of the facility's policy and procedure (P and P) titled, Abuse Prevention Program, dated 08/2006, the
P and P indicated that the facility is committed to conducting thorough employee background checks to
ensure the safety and well-being of its residents. The policy clearly states, The facility conducts employee
background checks and will not knowingly employ any individual who has been convicted of abusing,
neglecting, or mistreating individuals. Furthermore, the policy prohibits the employment of individuals found
guilty of exploitation, mistreatment of residents, and misappropriation of their property.

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 investigate allegations of sexual abuse (non-consensual
sexual contact of any type or sexual harassment), for one of three sampled residents (Resident 3) and
report to California Department of Public Health (CDPH), Ombudsman (a representative that helps families
and residents in long-term care facilities by investigating and resolving complaints and serving as an
advocate), and to the local law enforcement within 2 hours, failed to suspend the individual involved in the
abuse allegations.This deficient practice had the potential to place other facility residents at risk for abuse,
and delay required onsite inspection by CDPH. A review of Resident 3's admission record indicated
Resident 3 was admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a diagnosis including reduced mobility (having
difficulty moving around easily or freely, affecting your ability to perform daily tasks like walking, standing),
unspecified altered mental status (thinking, awareness, or behavior has changed from their normal state),
essential primary hypertension (when the pressure in your blood vessels is too high). A review of Resident
3's Minimum Data Set (MDS- a resident assessment tool) dated 9/10/2025 indicated, the resident is
cognitively intact (ability to acquire and understand knowledge), does not have change in behavior,
dependent on toileting hygiene, (Helper does all of the effort. Resident does none of the effort to complete
the activity. Or the assistance of 2 or more helpers is required for the resident to complete the activity.
Requires substantial/maximal assistance for shower/bath self (Helper does more than half the effort. Helper
lifts or holds trunk or limbs and provides more than half the effort.) During an interview on 9/16/2025 at
10:59 AM with Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) 1, CNA 1 stated, I have worked with Resident 3 once or
twice, he is dependent on staff to transfer and feeding. Resident 3 is alert and oriented, able to express his
needs, and recognizes staff. During an interview on 9/16/2025 at 11:56 AM with the social services director
(SS), SS stated, a day after Resident 3 was transferred from the facility, I was contacted by a General Acute
Care Hospital (GACH) social worker about abuse allegations against Resident 3. SS stated, the facility has
not started investigation of the abuse allegations and have not reported to the appropriate agencies. SS
stated, abuse allegations should be reported within 2 hours to CDPH, ombudsman, law enforcement,
family, and physician. During an interview on 9/16/2025 at 1:40 PM with MDS coordinator, MDS stated, it is
known Resident 3 has been aggressive to staff, the care plan and MDS assessment is in progress.
Resident 3 did not exhibit signs of abuse. During an interview on 9/16/2025 at 2 PM with the Director of
Staffing Development (DSD), the DSD stated, any abuse allegations should be reported to the abuse
coordinator. The process for abuse allegations is, report the allegations within 2 hours and follow the facility
abuse investigation protocol. During an interview on 9/16/2025 at 2:44 PM with the Director of Nursing
(DON), the DON stated, we have a process for abuse allegations. We must report the allegations within 2
hours, suspend involved staff, and update care plans. Report to CDPH, ombudsman, law enforcement,
physician and family members, and start investigations. The DON stated, a couple of days ago the facility
SS informed me, she has received a call from GACH staff. GACH staff has informed the facility SS,
department of health services (DHS) will be called for abuse allegations. DON stated, I told staff to
document what took place, I did not start investigation. The employee involved in the abuse allegations is
not suspended. During an interview on 9/17/2025 at 10:28 AM with the facility Administrator (ADM), the
ADM stated, staff should have followed the abuse allegation protocol. The process for any abuse allegation
is for the facility to initiate investigation by calling CDPH, reporting to ombudsman, isolating the victim,
calling law enforcement, education, and suspend if the alleged abuser is staff. The ADM stated, the
