The facility failed to report an allegation of sexual abuse of Resident #1 that occurred on 03/23/24 by CNA A, to the State Survey Agency within 2 hours of being notified. This failure could place residents at risk of abuse. Findings included: Record review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated 03/28/24, reflected Resident #1 was a [AGE] year-old male, who was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #1 had diagnoses of Parkinson's Disease (brain disease that causes uncontrollable and unintended movements), Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), Cognitive Communication Deficit (difficulty with talking and language usage), Dementia (impaired ability to remember, think, and made cognitive decisions), Psychotic Disorder with Hallucinations, Brief Psychotic Disorder (sudden onset of psychotic behavior), Depression (depressed mood or loss of pleasure), Insomnia (trouble falling or staying asleep), Essential Hypertension (High blood pressure), Muscle Weakness, Personal history of Malignant Neoplasm of Prostate (prostate cancer), and history of falling.

In an interview on 03/28/24 at 10:30 AM, Administrator B stated he was working at the facility last Saturday, 03/23/24, when Therapist C told him Resident #1 confided in her and told her CNA A licked and nibbled his ear while giving a shower. Administrator B stated Resident #1 also told Therapist C he felt CNA A rubbed his private area longer than usual. Administrator B stated he started his own investigation. Administrator B stated he spoke with Resident #1, and Resident #1 told him CNA A did not abuse him. Administrator B stated Resident #1 denied telling Therapist C anything regarding CNA A and any type of abuse.

He stated CNA A did not work, but he did call CNA A, did not tell CNA A which resident complained, but asked if he remembered any issues while showering the residents. Administrator B stated CNA A denied the allegations of sexual abuse. Administrator B stated since Resident #1 denied the allegations, and no other residents voiced any concerns, CNA A was allowed to return to the facility, but as a precaution, CNA A was not allowed to work on the same hall as Resident #1. Administrator B stated he did not report it to the state, because he completed his investigations with no findings, and Resident #1 denied the allegations. Administrator B stated Resident #1 was alert, his BIMS was around 11, he's an active resident, and no other residents complained of abuse. He stated even though there were no findings he started an abuse and neglect in-service. Administrator B stated he felt there was no risk, because he completed his own investigation and did not find any evidence of abuse. Administrator B stated he would start an incident report and provide the intake number. In a telephone interview on 03/28/24 at 12:08 PM, Therapist C stated during a conversation with Resident #1 on Saturday, 03/23/24, they talked about getting him up more due to Parkinson's Disease, and that was when Resident #1 told her CNA A abused him.

Therapist C stated she told Resident #1 she could not promise she would not tell anyone, but to go ahead and tell her. Therapist C stated Resident #1 told her CNA A had bothered him. Therapist C stated she asked Resident #1 who CNA A was, and he replied, the gay male CNA that came during the day. Therapist C stated Resident #1 told her CNA A had nibbled on his ear. She stated Resident #1 told her CNA A rubbed his private area longer and harder than he felt he needed during the shower. She stated Resident #1 told her he told CNA A he was not gay.

Therapist C stated Resident #1 told her he could handle the issue. Therapist C stated she told Resident #1 someone should be told, because they did not want this to happen with other residents. Therapist C stated she was a contract worker for the facility, so she called her supervisor and let her know what Resident #1 told her. She stated she went to look for the social worker in the facility and saw Administrator B was there, so she told Administrator B what Resident #1 told her about CNA A. Therapist C stated no other residents at the facility alleged abuse during their interactions.

Therapist C stated she knew Resident #1 had Parkinson's Disease, but she felt Resident #1 was not confused. She stated she had not known Resident #1 to be confused.

In an interview on 03/28/24 at 2:30 PM, Social Worker D stated Administrator B contacted her on 03/23/24, told her about the allegations and asked her to come to the facility to complete safe surveys. She stated she interviewed Resident #1, and the interview bothered her, because she did not mention any specific employee, but Resident #1 told her, He's a good guy and nothing happened. Social Worker D stated she mentioned to Administrator B this incident should be reported to the state, and he told her he would handle it. Social Worker D stated she told Administrator B he would be infringing on Resident #1's rights if he did not report the alleged abuse to the state.

The facility failed to ensure Resident #1's care plan was updated to reflect the resident's diagnosis of prostate cancer. This failure could place the residents at risk of not receiving adequate care. Findings included: Record review of Resident #1's face sheet, dated 03/28/24, reflected Resident #1 was a [AGE] year-old male, who admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Resident #1 had a diagnoses which included Parkinson's Disease (brain disease that causes uncontrollable and unintended movements), Dysphagia (difficulty swallowing), Cognitive Communication Deficit (difficulty with talking and language usage), Dementia (impaired ability to remember, think, and made cognitive decisions), Psychotic Disorder with Hallucinations, Brief Psychotic Disorder (sudden onset of psychotic behavior), Depression (depressed mood or loss of pleasure), Insomnia (trouble falling or staying asleep), Essential Hypertension (High blood pressure), Muscle Weakness, Personal history of Malignant Neoplasm of Prostate (prostate cancer), and history of falling.

MDS Coordinator E stated she was still trying to get caught up with the duties of the position, and that was why Resident #1's Care Plan did not reflect his prostate cancer diagnosis. She stated she would ensure it was updated before the end of the day. She stated the care plans should be updated annually or after a change in condition. MDS Coordinator E stated one risk of not addressing the diagnosis of prostate cancer on Resident #1's care plan was possible neglect of the resident, because some staff might not be aware of his diagnosis. During the same interview, Administrator B stated one risk of not having the care plan updated was Resident #1 not receiving the best quality of care, because some were not aware of his condition.
