Record review of Resident #1's hospital records, dated 01/15/2024 - 01/18/2024 , revealed it was
documented the resident was to receive an in-patient consult with psychiatry but there was no
documentation of a psych evaluation note on the patient. Records revealed the only new psych medication
order by a physician was a PRN 50mg trazadone every 12 hours for up to 60 days.
Record review of Resident #1's physician's orders, dated 03/14/2024, revealed the resident's only active
psych med order was one daily 50mg tablet Trazodone at bedtime for insomnia and he had no medication
changes since November 2023.
In an interview with RN A on 03/13/2024 at 12:43PM, she reported she was only aware of two incidents in
which Resident #1 hit Resident #2 and Resident #3. She stated she believed the resident tended to hit
other residents who exhibited startling movements or residents who failed to respond to him while talking to
them. She stated Resident #2 tended to have outbursts saying mean things like calling people stupid or
saying, you stink, while Resident #3 swatted her arms in the air as if she was telling someone who was not
there to get away. She stated Resident #1's actions were so unpredictable that she wouldn't know if he
would exhibit the same aggressive behaviors today or not. When asked who Resident #1 was allowed to sit
next to, she stated Resident #2 and Resident #3 were usually kept away from him. When asked if Resident
#4 was also allowed to sit next to Resident #1 since their altercation, she asked, [Resident #4]? How many
people did he hit? She stated Resident #1 did not have any medication changes following the evaluation at
the hospital most likely because the resident was on his best behavior during his stay at the hospital When
asked if she viewed Resident #1's actions as abuse, she stated it could be because he was not supposed
to be hitting random people .
In an interview with CNA A on 03/13/2024 at 12:58AM, she reported being aware of Resident #1's
unpredictable aggressive behaviors and witnessed the incident on 01/01/24 but believed Resident #1's
actions were not abuse because he was likely provoked in each situation, in that he was startled by the
other person. She said she allowed Resident #1 to sit with another male resident for lunch today and
Resident #2 usually sat by Resident #1 for mealtimes up until a month ago when a spot at the table
reserved for women opened up. She stated she was not aware of all the residents Resident #1 had hit and
she was not aware of a specific plan of care for Resident #1 regarding supervision to prevent future
altercations. She stated at most, the charges nurses would verbally report to them which residents to keep
separate from others depending on the residents' moods for that day.
In an interview with CNA B 03/14/2024 at 10:35AM, she reported working in the secured unit for the past 6
months but not knowing of Resident #1's past incidents with other residents until yesterday on 03/13/24.
She stated until then, she generally kept an eye on all residents in the secured unit but there was no
specific plan of care regarding supervision for Resident #1. She stated she did not see Resident #1's
actions as abuse because he had no intention behind it due to his dementia. She stated she did understand
how other residents were at risk for experiencing abuse because his aggressive behaviors were
unpredictable.
In an interview with the DON on 03/14/2024 at 1:05PM, she stated she was aware of Resident #1's
incidents in which he hit other residents. She stated Resident #1's episodes of aggression were
unpredictable and attributed it to the resident being easily startled. She stated they could only try to
separate the residents and redirect them to calm them down. She stated the altercations were like falls, for
which they could put interventions in place but that's not to say that they won't fall again, but you can only
prayerfully prevent an injury. She stated the only intervention they could impose was to separate the
residents after the incident and send the aggressor to the hospital after the family was notified about the
efforts made to safeguard the other residents. When asked if she

believed that was an abuse concern, she stated they did all they can do to immediately respond after the
incidents have occurred and Resident #1 did not intentionally abuse other residents due to his dementia
nor did the staff know the incidents were going to happen. She said she did not know if a psych doctor had
adjusted his medications as a result of the incidents. She said since the incident on 01/15/24, he had not
had another incident of aggressive behavior. She stated he was not a candidate for one-on-one supervision
at the moment because he had not had any other incidents since January . When asked how many
incidents it would take for Resident #1 to be managed differently to prevent further incidents, she stated she
could not put a number on that. She stated she did not know what else to say and that they could not
prevent it because they did not know when the behaviors could start again. When asked if she believed the
facility's abuse policy was followed, she stated the only thing they could do is put interventions in place
which was done for all of Resident #1's incidents and that should suffice.
In an interview with Administrator C on 03/14/2024 at 1:30PM, he reported it was his first day at the facility
and based on the information he had learned about Resident #1, he said he would have discharged
Resident #1 from the facility based on the established pattern of unpredictable episodes of aggression. He
stated there would not have been a third incident by Resident #1 and the facility was not able to provide
prolonged one-on-one supervision to prevent future incidents. He stated Resident #1 remaining at the
facility could place residents at risks of unprovoked encounters with him. He stated there should have been
an individualized training for staff on the resident's triggers which were difficult to determine considering he
was unprovoked. He stated general knowledge of Resident #1's history and the need for increased
monitoring would have been the most important things to educate staff on.
Record review of facility's policy on Abuse Investigation and Reporting reflected Administrator's duty to,
.ensure any further potential abuse . is prevented.
An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) was identified on 03/15/2024 at 3:00PM.
On 03/15/2024 at 4:25PM the Administrator was notified of the IJ. The IJ template was left with the
Administrator and a plan of removal (POR) was requested at that time.

Residents Affected - Some
active psych med order was one daily 50mg tablet Trazodone at bedtime for insomnia and he had no
medication changes since November 2023.
In an interview with RN A on 03/13/2024 at 12:43PM, she reported she was only aware of two incidents in
which Resident #1 hit Resident #2 and Resident #3. She stated she believed the resident tended to hit
other residents who exhibited startling movements or residents who failed to respond to him while talking to
them. She stated Resident #2 tended to have outbursts saying mean things like calling people stupid or
saying, you stink, while Resident #3 swatted her arms in the air as if she was telling someone who was not
there to get away. She stated Resident #1's actions were so unpredictable that she wouldn't know if he
would exhibit the same aggressive behaviors today or not. When asked who Resident #1 was allowed to sit
next to, she stated Resident #2 and Resident #3 were usually kept away from him. When asked if Resident
#4 was also allowed to sit next to Resident #1 since their altercation, she asked, [Resident #4]? How many
people did he hit? She stated Resident #1 did not have any medication changes following the evaluation at
the hospital most likely because the resident was on his best behavior during his stay at the hospital When
asked if she viewed Resident #1's actions as abuse, she stated it could be because he was not supposed
to be hitting random people .
In an interview with CNA A on 03/13/2024 at 12:58AM, she reported being aware of Resident #1's
unpredictable aggressive behaviors and witnessed the incident on 01/01/24 but believed Resident #1's
actions were not abuse because he was likely provoked in each situation, in that he was startled by the
other person. She said she allowed Resident #1 to sit with another male resident for lunch today and
Resident #2 usually sat by Resident #1 for mealtimes up until a month ago when a spot at the table
reserved for women opened up. She stated she was not aware of all the residents Resident #1 had hit and
she was not aware of a specific plan of care for Resident #1 regarding supervision to prevent future
altercations. She stated at most, the charges nurses would verbally report to them which residents to keep
separate from others depending on the residents' moods for that day.
In an interview with CNA B 03/14/2024 at 10:35AM, she reported working in the secured unit for the past 6
months but not knowing of Resident #1's past incidents with other residents until yesterday on 03/13/24.
She stated until then, she generally kept an eye on all residents in the secured unit but there was no
specific plan of care regarding supervision for Resident #1. She stated she did not see Resident #1's
actions as abuse because he had no intention behind it due to his dementia. She stated she did understand
how other residents were at risk for experiencing abuse because his aggressive behaviors were
unpredictable.
In an interview with the DON on 03/14/2024 at 1:05PM, she stated she was aware of Resident #1's
incidents in which he hit other residents. She stated Resident #1's episodes of aggression were
unpredictable and attributed it to the resident being easily startled. She stated they could only try to
separate the residents and redirect them to calm them down. She stated the altercations were like falls, for
which they could put interventions in place but that's not to say that they won't fall again, but you can only
prayerfully prevent an injury. She stated the only intervention they could impose was to separate the
residents after the incident and send the aggressor to the hospital after the family was notified about the
efforts made to safeguard the other residents. When asked if she believed that was an abuse concern, she
stated they did all they can do to immediately respond after the incidents have occurred and Resident #1
did not intentionally abuse other residents due to his dementia nor did the staff know the incidents were
going to happen. She said she did not know if a psych doctor had adjusted his medications as a result of
the incidents. She said since the incident on 01/15/24, he had not had another incident of aggressive
behavior. She stated he was not a candidate for one-on-one supervision at the moment because he had
not had any other incidents since January . When

asked how many incidents it would take for Resident #1 to be managed differently to prevent further
incidents, she stated she could not put a number on that. She stated she did not know what else to say and
that they could not prevent it because they did not know when the behaviors could start again. When asked
if she believed the facility's abuse policy was followed, she stated the only thing they could do is put
interventions in place which was done for all of Resident #1's incidents and that should suffice.
In an interview with Administrator C on 03/14/2024 at 1:30PM, he reported it was his first day at the facility
and based on the information he had learned about Resident #1, he said he would have discharged
Resident #1 from the facility based on the established pattern of unpredictable episodes of aggression. He
stated there would not have been a third incident by Resident #1 and the facility was not able to provide
prolonged one-on-one supervision to prevent future incidents. He stated Resident #1 remaining at the
facility could place residents at risks of unprovoked encounters with him. He stated there should have been
an individualized training for staff on the resident's triggers which were difficult to determine considering he
was unprovoked. He stated general knowledge of Resident #1's history and the need for increased
monitoring would have been the most important things to educate staff on.
Record review of facility's policy on Abuse Investigation and Reporting reflected Administrator's duty to,
.ensure any further potential abuse . is prevented.
An Immediate Jeopardy (IJ) was identified on 03/15/2024 at 3:00PM.
On 03/15/2024 at 4:25PM the Administrator was notified of the IJ. The IJ template was left with the
Administrator and a plan of removal (POR) was requested at that time.
The POR was accepted on 03/16/2024 at 12:53PM. The POR reflected:

approaches with each resident to prevent abuse. He stated for the future when dealing with residents with
unprovoked aggressive behaviors, he would resort to finding more appropriate placement for that resident
to protect other residents.

Record review of Resident #1's physician's orders, dated 03/14/2024, revealed the resident's only active
psych med order was one daily 50mg tablet Trazodone at bedtime for insomnia and he had no medication
changes since November 2023.
In an interview with RN A on 03/13/2024 at 12:43PM, she reported she was only aware of two incidents in
which Resident #1 hit Resident #2 and Resident #3. She stated she believed the resident tended to hit
other residents who exhibited startling movements or residents who failed to respond to him while talking to
them. She stated Resident #2 tended to have outbursts saying mean things like calling people stupid or
saying, you stink, while Resident #3 swatted her arms in the air as if she was telling someone who was not
there to get away. She stated Resident #1's actions were so unpredictable that she wouldn't know if he
would exhibit the same aggressive behaviors today or not. When asked who Resident #1 was allowed to sit
next to, she stated Resident #2 and Resident #3 were usually kept away from him. When asked if Resident
#4 was also allowed to sit next to Resident #1 since their altercation, she asked, [Resident #4]? How many
people did he hit? She stated Resident #1 did not have any medication changes following the evaluation at
the hospital most likely because the resident was on his best behavior during his stay at the hospital When
asked if she viewed Resident #1's actions as abuse, she stated it could be because he was not supposed
to be hitting random people .
In an interview with CNA A on 03/13/2024 at 12:58AM, she reported being aware of Resident #1's
unpredictable aggressive behaviors and witnessed the incident on 01/01/24 but believed Resident #1's
actions were not abuse because he was likely provoked in each situation, in that he was startled by the
other person. She said she allowed Resident #1 to sit with another male resident for lunch today and
Resident #2 usually sat by Resident #1 for mealtimes up until a month ago when a spot at the table
reserved for women opened up. She stated she was not aware of all the residents Resident #1 had hit and
she was not aware of a specific plan of care for Resident #1 regarding supervision to prevent future
altercations. She stated at most, the charges nurses would verbally report to them which residents to keep
separate from others depending on the residents' moods for that day.
In an interview with CNA B 03/14/2024 at 10:35AM, she reported working in the secured unit for the past 6
months but not knowing of Resident #1's past incidents with other residents until yesterday on 03/13/24.
She stated until then, she generally kept an eye on all residents in the secured unit but there was no
specific plan of care regarding supervision for Resident #1. She stated she did not see Resident #1's
actions as abuse because he had no intention behind it due to his dementia. She stated she did understand
how other residents were at risk for experiencing abuse because his aggressive behaviors were
unpredictable.
In an interview with the DON on 03/14/2024 at 1:05PM, she stated she was aware of Resident #1's
incidents in which he hit other residents. She stated Resident #1's episodes of aggression were
unpredictable and attributed it to the resident being easily startled. She stated they could only try to
separate the residents and redirect them to calm them down. She stated the altercations were like falls, for
which they could put interventions in place but that's not to say that they won't fall again, but you can only
prayerfully prevent an injury. She stated the only intervention they could impose was to separate the
residents after the incident and send the aggressor to the hospital after the family was notified about the
efforts made to safeguard the other residents. When asked if she believed that was an abuse concern, she
stated they did all they can do to immediately respond after the incidents have occurred and Resident #1
did not intentionally abuse other residents due to his dementia nor did the staff know the incidents were
going to happen. She said she did not know if a psych doctor had adjusted his medications as a result of
the incidents. She said since the incident on 01/15/24, he had not had another incident of aggressive
behavior. She stated he was not a candidate for

asked how many incidents it would take for Resident #1 to be managed differently to prevent further
incidents, she stated she could not put a number on that. She stated she did not know what else to say and
that they could not prevent it because they did not know when the behaviors could start again. When asked
if she believed the facility's abuse policy was followed, she stated the only thing they could do is put
interventions in place which was done for all of Resident #1's incidents and that should suffice.

and based on the information he had learned about Resident #1, he said he would have discharged
Resident #1 from the facility based on the established pattern of unpredictable episodes of aggression. He
stated there would not have been a third incident by Resident #1 and the facility was not able to provide
prolonged one-on-one supervision to prevent future incidents. He stated Resident #1 remaining at the
facility could place residents at risks of unprovoked encounters with him. He stated there should have been
an individualized training for staff on the resident's triggers which were difficult to determine considering he
was unprovoked. He stated general knowledge of Resident #1's history and the need for increased
monitoring would have been the most important things to educate staff on.
