F 0609 Resident #3. Was his own representative. Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm A record review of Resident #3's MDS dated [DATE] documented he was a smoker and had a BIMS score of 12, indicating moderately impaired cognition, and a cognitive and functional ability to transfer himself with 1 staff to assist and was continent. MDS dated [DATE] documented a BIMS score of 12 and Physical behavioral symptoms directed toward others (e.g., hitting, kicking, pushing, scratching, grabbing, abusing others sexually) for 1-3 days, and remained continent. Residents Affected - Some A record review of Resident #3's Change in Condition Report dated 02/09/23 documented: the resident stated he hit Resident #1 on her bottom to tell her to keep moving in the hallway, whereas he was separated from the other resident and placed on q15-minute monitoring. There were no other changes documented. A record review of Resident #3's Discharge Plan and Summary dated 02/22/23 documented the Reason for Discharge was inappropriate behaviors and discharge to a sister facility all-male unit. A record review of Resident #3's Care Plan dated 01/30/23 documented Resident #3 had the potential for inappropriate touching behavior. Date Initiated: 01/30/2023. Resident #3 will have no evidence of behavior problems by the review date. Date Initiated: 01/30/202. Intervene as necessary to protect the rights and safety of others. Approach/Speak in a calm manner. Divert attention. Remove from the situation and take to an alternate location as needed. Date Initiated: 01/30/2023.: Resident #3 was to be monitored by staff when interacting with Resident #1, whom he had previously touched. Date Initiated: 01/30/2023. Resident #3 was receiving Psychiatric services and was taking sedatives/hypnotics, and antidepressants. He was also being treated for his heart condition, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure. A record review of Resident #1's progress notes dated 01/23/23 at 3:50 pm documented Resident #1 was returning to the facility from a scheduled smoke break with Resident #3. When entering the building Resident #3 grabbed Resident #1's breast from behind. Resident #1 then came to the nurse's station and stated, I don't want him to be grabbing my breast. and pointed toward Resident #3. The nurse followed Resident #1 into her room to verify what had happened. Resident #1 stated, I don't want to get him in trouble I just want him to stop doing that. When Resident #1 was asked if it had happened before, Resident #1 stated, No he usually asks me to grab my breast, but I tell him no, but today he did it when I wasn't looking. A record review of the facility investigation report, completed by the ADM, dated 01/23/23 documented a resident-to-resident incident involving Resident #1 and Resident #3 upon returning from a smoke break wherein Resident #1 reported to a charge nurse that Resident #3 had grabbed her breast. She stated that she did not want to get him into trouble, she just wanted him to stop doing that. When asked if she would rather Resident #3 not attend smoking with her, she said, Oh, no, he is fine to continue to smoke with me as long as he doesn't do that again. She stated that they don't really talk much, and he doesn't bother her. She is not afraid of him. The SW and nurse visited Resident #3 and asked the resident if he had touched the other resident inappropriately. He stated yes, I don't know why, it just felt good to do. When told Resident #3 did not want him to do that again, he said okay, fine, I won't do it again. He said he was sorry and understood he was not to touch any resident in an inappropriate manner. Conclusion: Substantiated. This was a resident-to-resident incident. No further incidents between residents. Staff notified to monitor residents during smoke breaks and activities. 676321 Page 2 of 6 676321 05/10/2023 Windsor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center of Corpu 3030 Fig St Corpus Christi, TX 78404
F 0609 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Some An interview with the ADM on 05/09/23 at 2:15 PM stated he was surprised to find out that Resident #3 had been asking Resident #1 if he could touch her breasts, and after all the plans the facility put into place because of it, Resident #3 spanked Resident #1 on her butt. The ADM stated Resident #3 was discharged to another facility after moving to another hall, away from the female resident, which did not work out. An interview with the ADM on 05/09/23 at 3:50 PM stated he had not notified the local authorities about this sexual abuse. A record review of the facility investigation report, completed by the ADM, dated 02/09/23 documented a resident-to-resident incident involving Resident #1 and Resident #3; While returning from smoking, Residents #1 and #3 turned onto the hallway where they both resided. Resident #1 suddenly stopped with her walker due to obstacles and other residents in wheelchairs blocking her way. Resident #3 was directly behind her when she stopped. Resident #3 reportedly slapped Resident#1 on her bottom and told her to keep moving. Resident #1 cried out Stop that, which alerted staff to the incident. Conclusion: Substantiated. This was a resident-to-resident incident. No further incidents between residents. Staff notified to monitor residents during smoke breaks and activities. Residents now reside in different units so that they no longer walk together in the hallway to and from smoking. They no longer sit at the same table for activities and meals. We do not believe Resident #3 meant anything sexual with his slap on Resident #1's bottom. An interview with Resident #1 on 05/09/23 at 2:45 PM stated Resident #3 asked her if he could kiss her and she did a couple of times in the beginning, but that one time, he grabbed my breast from behind and she didn't like it. Another time he swatted her on her butt, and she was not expecting that, either. Resident #1 stated the facility got rid of him for it, and she was sad about that because he was a good guy and they all miss him. Resident #1 stated, he was just a dirty old man-it was no big deal, he just got a little too comfortable. Resident #1 stated they could have worked something out (she and Resident #3). Resident #1 stated she did not appreciate it when Resident #3 smacked her on the rear. Resident #1 stated, No one had the right to do that except her husband, and he was dead. Resident #1 stated she didn't want Resident #3 to get moved-he was a good friend, and his getting moved was worse than him smacking her. A record review of Resident #2's face sheet dated 07/08/21 documented a [AGE] year-old female with relevant diagnoses of Alzheimer's, major depressive disorder, recurrent, high blood pressure, diabetes, abnormalities of gait and mobility, muscle wasting and atrophy, dysphasia, and had total blindness in both eyes. A record review of Resident #2's MDS dated [DATE] documented a BIMS score of zero, indicating severely impaired cognition, as it was upon admission on [DATE]. A record review of the facility investigation report, completed by the ADM, dated 02/20/23 documented Resident #6 reported he had witnessed Resident #3 grab Resident #2's breasts. The report documented Resident #6 stated that Resident #3 had gone up to Resident #2 in the hallway and grabbed her breasts and she elbowed him, and he went back to his room. A full body assessment of Resident #2 showed no bruising. Residents #2 and #3 denied the incident but Resident #6 that reported the incident was alert and oriented and had a BIMS of 11, indicating moderate cognitive impairment. Resident #6 was unavailable for an interview during this investigation. 676321 Page 3 of 6 676321 05/10/2023 Windsor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center of Corpu 3030 Fig St Corpus Christi, TX 78404

A record review of Resident #5's face sheet documented an initial admission of 01/11/22 and re-admission on [DATE] and documented a [AGE] year-old male with relevant diagnoses of stroke, chronic viral hepatitis, seizures, alcoholic cirrhosis of the liver, traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (bleeding in the brain from trauma) without loss of consciousness, dysphagia, reflux, wasting and atrophy, and high blood pressure. A record review of Resident #5's MDS dated [DATE] documented he was a smoker, at risk for wandering, and had a BIMS score of 6, indicating severe cognitive impairment.

Resident #4 stated after Resident #5 hit him, LVN A took him away somewhere (he did not know where), and he ate his breakfast. Resident #4 stated he could not go into the dining room anymore until Resident #5 leaves (the dining room). Resident #4 stated he did not have any pain or anything (after he was slapped). Resident #4 stated the staff tells Resident #5 to leave him alone because he sang well. Resident #4 stated Resident #5 had not hit him again since. A record review of the facility investigation report witness statement written by LVN A stated Resident #4 reported to her after Resident #5 slapped him on the head.

Resident #5 stated, Because he's mean, and I don't like him and the 676321 Page 4 of 6 676321 05/10/2023 Windsor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center of Corpu 3030 Fig St Corpus Christi, TX 78404
