Staff immediately separated the residents.
Neither resident could recall the incident due to cognitive impairment. Resident #3 and Resident #4 were assessed for any injuries and no injuries were noted. IV.
Staff interviewsCertified nurse aide (CNA) #3 was interviewed on 9/4/25. CNA #3 said Resident #2 did not have aggressive behaviors, but was sensitive to his personal space.
She said they were trying to keep residents who wandered on the unit, such as Resident #1, away from Resident #2.
She said staff did their best to ensure other residents did not enter into the personal space of Resident #2.
She said she was aware of the incident between Resident #2 and Resident #1 (on 6/16/25) and the interventions were to keep the residents away from each other and re-direct them. CNA #3 said Resident #3 had a history of sexually inappropriate behaviors because she confused male residents in the facility with her husband.
She said the intervention was to ensure Resident #3 was not too close to male residents when she was in the public areas, and that she did not wander in other resident's rooms. CNA #3 said Resident #4 was not physically aggressive and he did not have a history of inappropriate behaviors.
Registered nurse (RN) #1 was interviewed on 9/4/25 at 11:50 a.m. RN #1 said she did not know where Resident #3 was after she left the dining room (on 9/4/25 - see observation above).
She said she was able to locate Resident #3 in room [ROOM NUMBER].
She said room [ROOM NUMBER] was not Resident #3's room and she assisted the resident back to her room for a nap.
She said Resident #3 was very fast and the staff tried to keep an eye on her.
She said Resident #3 occasionally had sexually inappropriate behaviors, such as touching male residents, because she thought male residents were her husband.
She said staff ensured that she did not enter the personal space of other residents.-However, Resident #3 was observed entering the room of two male residents and lying on one of the male residents' beds (see observation above).The director of nursing (DON) was interviewed on 9/4/25 at 2:30 p.m.
The DON said she was aware of the incident between Resident #2 and Resident #1 on 6/16/25 and the incident between Resident #3 and Resident #4 on 8/19/25.
She said after the incident, staff were re-educated on the prevention and de-escalation of physical altercations and on ensuring that residents did not enter the personal space of other residents.
The DON said she would provide additional education regarding Resident #3 to ensure she did not enter other residents' rooms by mistake.
She said currently in the memory care unit, every room had a colored door to help residents remember their own room.
She said staff would consider other options to help Resident #3 be able to locate her room more easily.
The NHA was interviewed on 9/4/25 at 3:00 p.m.
The NHA said the goal of the facility was to keep all residents free from abuse and to ensure appropriate interventions were in place for residents with behaviors. He said the incident between Resident #2 and Resident #1 on 6/16/25 and the incident between Resident #3 and Resident #4 on 8/19/25 were both investigated and reported in a timely manner. He said in both incidents, abuse was substantiated.
The NHA said the interdisciplinary team (IDT) met after each abuse incident, talked to the residents' families and always looked for the best and most appropriate solutions to prevent any further abuse incidents.
