and dignity for 1 of 3 residents reviewed for resident rights. (Resident #1)

Record review of Resident #1's Annual MDS assessment dated [DATE] indicated his cognition was intact

During an interview on 5/1/24 at 9: 45 a.m., Resident #1 said on 4/30/24, CNA A came into his room and
started opening his nightstand drawers and rummaging through them. He said she continued to go through
his things, and he asked her what she was doing, and she ignored him. Resident # 1 said he got mad and
started yelling at her and told her to get out and leave his things alone. He said to make things worse, when
he left his room to talk to the DON about CNA A going through his things without permission, CNA A and
CNA B had gone in his room and taken all his towels. He said some of the towels were his own personal
towels and they had taken those as well.
During an interview on 5/1/24 at 10:14 a.m., CNA A said she was asked by the ADON to check resident
rooms for towels. She was just doing what she was told. She was told to get the extra towels out of
residents' rooms and that was what she was doing. She said Resident #1 took a shower every day and
sometimes twice a day and felt he always needed extra towels. She said she did not have any problems

fine with that. However, when she had gone to his closet, he became upset and stated hollering, what are
you doing? You have no business in there? She said she saw a bag in the closet that contained towels. She
did not remove the bag because the resident was freaking out (hollering and upset.) She said she had told
CNA B and they had gone back later to get the towels when the resident was not in the room. She said it
was two large stacks of towels, and they had taken them to the Environmental Services Supervisor who
said they were the facility's towel. CNA A said they were the facility's towels and he should not have had
them. She said she was in-serviced on Resident Rights.
During an interview on 5/1/24 at 10:23 a.m. the ADON said the Environmental Specialist Supervisor was
doing inventory on his linens. He asked her to see if she could get the aides to do room search for towels.
She said in some cases, hospice aides put towels in the rooms, so they had them when they wanted to do
showers. She said she asked CNA A and CNA B to search the rooms for towels. The ADON said she did
not think she had to tell them to knock on doors and ask for permission before looking for towels. She said
she thought staff understood when the resident says no, that means no.
During an interview on 5/1/24 at 10:44 a.m., the DON said the ADON asked CNA A to go to residents'
rooms to see if they were hoarding towels. The DON said Resident #1 came to her and said CNA A had
gone through his things without his permission. She said Resident #1 said he was upset that she went
through his things. The DON said her interview with CNA A revealed she went to Resident #1's room and
told him she was going to look for towels. The DON said that was not what they were supposed to do. The
DON stated they were to ask for permission to go through the residents' things. She said she immediately
started and an in-service on Resident rights.
During an interview on 5/1/24 at 11:25 a.m., CNA B said the ADON had asked her and CNA A to check
resident rooms for towels. She had to take care of another resident and CNA A had gone into Resident #1's
room alone. She said the aide told her she knocked on his door and told him what she was doing. She said
CNA A said Resident #1 got upset when she went into his closet. CNA B said CNA A came and told her
Resident #1 had a lot of towels in his closet. CNA B said they had gotten the towels while Resident #1 was
not in the room.
During an interview on 5/1/24 at 12:30 p.m., the Administrator said they had started an in-service on
yesterday regarding residents' rights and they had counseled CNA A. She said if things happened the way
Resident #1 said, the aide should not have looked through his things without permission.
During an interview on 5/1/24 at 12:40 p.m., Resident #1 said his main concern was that girl (CNA A)
violated his rights by going through his things and he felt something needed to be done.
Record review of an in-service dated 4/30/24 indicated Resident Rights and Privacy: You cannot go into a
resident room and start looking through things without their permission. All staff must be mindful that this is
their home, and we should respect that., at no point should they fell like they have no personal boundaries
with staff, knock before you enter, let them know what you are in their room for, and ask permission before
going forward with the task. The in service was signed by 8 staff. Attached to the in service was a copy of
the facility Resident Rights policy.
Record review of the facility's policy on Resident Rights revised February 2021 indicated Employees should
treat all residents with kindness, respect, and dignity. The resident had the right to a dignified existence, to
be treated with respect, kindness, and dignity, be informed of, and participate in his or her care planning
and treatment, privacy, and confidentiality.
