Inspection Findings
During the interview, the ADM was questioned about the incident involving RI #60 and CNA #41.
The ADM indicated that the report was substantiated as mistreatment and CNA #41 intended to strike RI #60 by throwing an ashtray.
The ADM said, it was an inappropriate response to the resident's behavior and if staff witnessed another staff member throw an ashtray at a resident they should act to protect the resident at all times and report the incident immediately.

The facility failed to manage other residents' behavioral concerns to prevent physical and verbal abuse in instances not rising to the immediate jeopardy level.
2.) Specifically, on 05/24/2023 RI #487, a resident with a history of behaviors had an altercation with a staff member which resulted in RI #487 being verbally abused by a staff member.
Following the incident on 05/24/2023, the facility did not review RI #487's care plan to determine whether additional interventions were needed to manage RI #487's behaviors. On 07/01/2023 RI #487 had an altercation with his/her roommate, RI #41, which resulted in a fractured left finger.
3.) On 09/12/2024 RI #339 stabbed his/her roommate RI #3 with a pen causing pain and bleeding and RI #3 had to be transported to the hospital for evaluation. RI #339's care plans did not include the level of supervison required to ensure the safety of RI #339's roommate or other residents in the facility and did not include any focus areas, interventions, approaches, or guidance to staff to address physical aggression, throwing things, night terrors, flashbacks, or sleeplessness.
RI #60, RI #487, and RI #339 were three of four residents sampled for behavioral concerns.
The facility's failure to manage RI #60's, RI #487's, and RI #339's behaviors resulted in injury of RI #41, RI #287, and RI #3, three of 29 residents sampled.
