F 0609 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some because Student C did not provide names, he could not be 100 percent sure those were the residents involved. The ADM stated he did not report the allegations to HHSC because he did not perceive them as allegations of abuse but thought it was a concern in all three instances where staff may have been rushing and needed additional education.

She stated that the ADM was responsible for reporting to HHSC. She said the purpose of reporting all allegations to HHSC was so they (HHSC) could come out and ensure that the facility followed the correct protocol to prevent abuse.

She stated that she made herself clear that she wanted to report abuse. She said the ADON told her she would have to get the ADM as she could not take a statement of that nature herself. She stated that when the ADON retrieved the ADM, they passed CNA A and told her, After this, we will need to talk. She stated that CNA A attempted to walk with the ADON and ADM, but the ADON stopped her. Student C said this made her feel uncomfortable as this would make it obvious that she was the one making the report of abuse. She stated they went to the office, and she reported what she had experienced, including the alleged allegations of abuse with Resident #1 ,#2, and #3. She stated that in the presence of the ADM and ADON, she made herself clear that she was alleging that Resident #1, #2, and #3 had been abused. She stated that she was asked to write a statement.

The lady was in so much pain she yelled. January 8, 2025 I witnessed CNA A put a over amount of food into the mouth of a patient (Resident #1) who couldn't move and was rushing feeding her. The lady choked so I gave her kool-laid. January 9, 2025 I witnessed CNA A chuck Resident #2 on the bed. CNA A was in a hurry due to trying to leave early. Record review of CNA A's handwritten statement, dated 1/08/25, revealed the following: I, CNA A, was feeding residents and it was said I over feed, but I truly feel that I over did it, but I will be careful and safe.
