interview and record review the facility failed to ensure that all alleged violations involving abuse, neglect,
exploitation, or mistreatment, including injuries of unknown source and misappropriation of resident
property, were reported immediately, but no later than 24 hours after the allegation was made, for 1 of 3
residents (Resident's #1) reviewed for abuse and neglect. The facility failed to report an allegation of
neglect on 01/19/2026 to HHSC within 24 hours. This failure could place the residents at increased risk for
abuse and neglect.The findings included: Record review of the face sheet, dated 01/29/2026, reflected
Resident #1 was a [AGE] year-old female who admitted to the facility on [DATE] with a diagnosis of
hemiplegia (paralysis) and hemiparesis (weakness) following a stroke affecting the right dominant side.
Record review of the admission MDS assessment, dated 11/17/2025, reflected Resident #1 had clear
speech, was understood by others, and was able to understand others. Resident #1 had a BIMS score of
15, which indicated no cognitive impairment. Resident #1 had no signs or symptoms of delirium (sudden,
acute and fluctuating disturbance in attention, awareness, and cognition) and there were no behaviors. The
MDS reflected Resident #1 was totally dependent on staff assistance for toileting hygiene. Resident #1 was
frequently incontinent of bowel. Record review of the comprehensive care plan, dated 11/17/2025, reflected
Resident #1 had an ADL self-care performance deficit related to a recent stroke with hemiplegia. The
interventions indicated Resident #1 required assistance with toilet use. During an observation and interview
on 01/28/2026 beginning at 4:26 p.m., Resident #1 was sitting up in her wheelchair. Resident #1 explained
last Monday (01/19/2026) CNA B had an attitude with her. Resident #1 stated she pressed her call light
because she needed to be changed. She said she had been given a laxative earlier in the day and was
having diarrhea. Resident #1 stated CNA B answered her call light at approximately 6 p.m. and explained
that she needed to gather her supplies but would return to get her cleaned up. Resident #1 stated CNA B
did not return to her room, so she pressed the call light again. She said when CNA B answered her call
light the second time, CNA B stated she only had to change Resident #1 every two hours. Resident #1
stated CNA B refused to change her brief, give her name, and stuck her tongue out at her and rolled her
eyes when she walked out of the room. Resident #1 said CNA B kept looking over her shoulder during the
conversation, like she did not want someone to walk into the room. Resident #1 stated I had to sit in fecal
matter for over an hour and I am human and want to be treated like one. Resident #1 stated she was afraid
to press her call light because she did not trust anyone to help her. Resident #1 said she called her family
member, and she came up to the facility. She said she had no further contact or interactions with CNA B.
The family member was at bedside during the interview. The family member stated she had been at the
facility on 01/19/2026. The family member stated Resident #1 pressed her call light around 5:45 p.m.
because she needed to be changed. The family member stated CNA B answered the call light around 6
p.m. and explained she had just arrived on shift and needed to gather

her supplies. The family member stated she left the facility around 6:20 p.m. and CNA B had not returned to
provide assistance. The family member stated she sat in the parking lot for approximately 20 minutes and
left around 6:40 p.m. The family member stated she assumed care had been provided because Resident
#1 did not call her. The family member stated Resident #1 called her around 7:30 p.m. and was audibly
upset and in distress. Resident #1 reported that she had still not been changed, and CNA B came into her
room, refused to change her, give her name, and stuck her tongue out at her. The family member stated
she immediately came up to the facility, confronted CNA B and reported the allegations to the
Administrator. During an interview on 01/28/2026 beginning at 8:26 p.m., CNA B stated she was fairly new
to the facility and had started around 01/02/2026. She stated she was still working at the facility but was
moved off Resident #1's hallway. She said she had only worked 2 days on Resident #1's hallway. She
stated Resident #1 did not normally get on her call light, but she was aware Resident #1 was incontinent of
her bowels. CNA B stated on 01/19/2026 around 6:10 p.m., Resident #1's family member reported that
Resident #1 had diarrhea and needed to be changed. She said she told Resident #1's family member she
had just arrived at work and was going to gather her supplies. CNA B stated she changed Resident #1
around 6:20 p.m. and she had just started having a bowel movement but there was no diarrhea. CNA B
said she finished changing Resident #1 and told her she would return later to allow her time to finish having
a bowel movement. CNA B stated she returned 35 - 40 minutes later and changed Resident #1 a second
time. She said Resident #1 had no diarrhea. CNA B stated she was providing care for another resident
when Resident #1's family member started asking her questions in a rude tone. CNA B stated the family
member accused her of letting Resident #1 sit in her bowel movement for hours, refusing to introduce
herself or give Resident #1 her name, and sticking her tongue out at her and rolling her shoulders. CNA B
stated she did not stick her tongue out or roll her eyes. She said she re-introduced herself each time she
went into the room. She said the Administrator arrived at the facility, explained the allegations were
considered neglect and suspended her pending an investigation. CNA B stated she left the facility. During
an interview on 01/29/2026 beginning at 12:05 p.m., the Administrator stated on 01/19/2026 he received a
call from Resident #1's family member around 8:30 p.m. He said the family was upset that Resident #1 had
several large bowel movements and hadn't been changed for two hours. The Administrator said when he
arrived at the facility, Resident #1 reported CNA B had come into her room, stated she would be back and
turned off the call light, stuck her tongue out at her and rolled her eyes. The Administrator stated he found
CNA B and informed her she was suspended pending the investigation and sent her home. The
Administrator stated Resident #1 had no evidence of distress and he felt the allegation was more related to
customer service versus neglect, which was why he decided not to report the incident to HHSC. The
Administrator was unsure of the actual time it took for Resident #1 to receive assistance. The Administrator
stated he completed safe surveys and found no further complaints about CNA B. He said there were no
resident complaints about call lights not being answered. He said the nurses performed a skin assessment
on Resident #1 with no abnormal findings. The Administrator stated neglect was when the facility did not
give care, that resulted in further injuries. The Administrator stated there had to be harm or injuries to have
been considered neglect. He stated the abuse policy should have been followed, and he felt like he followed
the reporting guidelines. The Administrator stated he referenced the state provider letter on abuse reporting
and his policy when determining whether an allegation needed to be reported. He said he could also
contact several resources within the company. Record review of the 7 safe surveys, dated 01/20/2026,
reflected Resident #2, Resident #3, Resident #4, Resident #5, Resident #6, Resident #7, and Resident #8
felt safe in the facility and had no issues or
