Based on interview and record review, the
facility failed to protect the resident ' s right to
be free from physical abuse (deliberately
aggressive or violent behavior with the intention
to cause harm) by Resident 2 for one of five
sampled residents (Resident 1); when on
12/21/2023 Resident 2 pulled Resident 1 out of
bed causing Resident 1 to fall to the floor.
This deficient practice resulted in Resident 1
being subjected to physical abuse by Resident
2 while under the care of the facility. Resident 2
pulled Resident 1 out of his bed causing
Resident 1 to fall onto the floor, to cry, scream,
and shake. Based on the reasonable person
concept (hypothetical [suggested], average
person's reaction to the actual circumstances)
due to Resident 1 ' s severely impaired
cognition (ability to think and make decisions),
an individual subjected to physical abuse has
lifetime physical pain and psychological (mental
or emotional) effects including feelings of
embarrassment and humiliation.
Findings:
A review of Resident 1's Face Sheet
(admission record), dated 3/15/23, indicated
the facility admitted Resident 1 on 2/23/23 with
a medical history of psychosis (a condition of
the mind that results in difficulties determining
what is real and what is not real).
A review of Resident 1's Minimum Data Set
(MDS, a tool for resident assessment), dated
11/2/23, indicated Resident 1 had severe
mental confusion.
A review of Resident 1's Situation-BackgroundAssessment-Recommendation Communication
Form (SBAR, a form that provides
communication between health care team
members about a resident 's condition), dated
