' s room. CNA 3 continued, CNA 2 and CNA 3 heard a call light ring, and they went to check who was
calling. CNA 3 added they saw the light was from Resident 1 ' s room, and she started to walk to Resident
1 ' s room when CNA 2 joined. CNA 3 stated that as she was approaching Resident 1 ' s room, she heard a
commotion in the room, so she listened at the door. CNA 3 added, she heard Resident 1 fussing and
fighting, then she heard CNA 1 yell, F***ing D**k, to which CNA 2 told CNA 3 that was inappropriate. CNA 3
stated CNA 1 went to get linen for Resident 1 ' s room and CNA 2 and CNA 3 asked CNA 1 to leave the
room. CNA 3 added she and CNA 3 took over care for Resident 1 and CNA 1 stayed outside the door. CNA

1).

care unit. CNA 2 added, she and CNA 3 heard a call light ring and checked to see whose call light it was.
CNA 2 continued, she saw that it was for Resident 1, who could be combative and refused care. CNA 2

care and come back in 5-10 minutes. CNA 2 stated, CNA 1 had pushed the call light for help and Charge
Nurse 1 asked for CNA 2 to help CNA 1. CNA 2 stated that she arrived at Resident 1 ' s room prior to CNA
