Inspection Findings
Based on interview and record review, the facility failed to report the allegation of sexual abuse for one resident (R1) within the stipulated two hours time frame.
Findings Include: On 9/11/25 at 10:05 AM, V1 (Administrator) stated that at approximately 1:00 PM on 9/9/25, the facility was notified via email by V15 (Ombudsman) that she received a call from V3 (Wound Nurse/Licensed Practical Nurse/LPN) about a possible sexual abuse towards R1. V1 stated that he is the abuse coordinator, it is his expectation that all allegations of abuse will be reported to him immediately for investigation, and the initial reportable should be sent to Illinois Department of Public health/IDPH within two hours of notification. V1 stated that V3 should have reported the allegation to him, and he should have sent the initial reportable to IDPH around 3pm and not at 5:44 PM, because he must still follow two hours of reporting allegation of abuse. On 9/11/25 at 12:38 PM, via telephone, V3 (Wound Nurse/LPN) stated that she has been in the facility since March 28, 2025, and she attended in-service on types of abuse, who and when to report an abuse.On 9/11/25 at 1:16 PM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) stated that she has been in the facility since April 2024.
