During an interview on 1/28/25 at 11:55 AM, Resident #64 revealed he was in the Vietnam War, and he suffered from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) from his military service. He stated he was left for dead and the two soldiers with him were killed and it was a miracle he survived. He said that during that event, he was praying for God to keep him still so they would think he was dead and then he talked about how his mother prayed constantly for him to safely return home. He believed that God gave him the strength not to move even though he was getting kicked and beaten. He acknowledged he had triggers such as loud thunder or a loud noise from something being dropped, and when he heard these things, I almost hit the floor.
While he was talking about his experience, he became teary eyed and cried softly.
During an interview on 1/29/25 at 4:15 PM, the Director of Nursing (DON) revealed the resident had a diagnosis of PTSD and a care plan was developed for this.
She stated a care plan should guide staff in the individualized care of each resident.
She confirmed a PTSD assessment was not done, and triggers were not identified, therefore, the care plan did not give staff information needed for the triggers that affected this resident's mental health status.
