We counted approximately 10 times, and then proceeded to flip his wheelchair over. Resident #1 was then left lying on the floor and he proceeded to crawl into his room.

the face, head and chest with a closed fist. CNA #1 never attempted to obtain assistance, nor did she attempt to leave the situation and go get help.

She informed LPN #2 to call CNA #1 and suspend her until the investigation could be completed and to get a statement from CNA #1 over the phone as to what had occurred. CNA #1 told them that Resident #1 attacked her first and pinned her up against the wall with his legs and that she had to get him off of her and she slapped Resident #1 with an open hand and then he slid out of his wheelchair. CNA #1 told LPN #2 that she had not abused Resident #1. LPN #2 and DON both arrived at the facility at approximately 4:00 PM and they together viewed the security video cameras and they could not believe their eyes as they both saw CNA #1 repeatedly hitting Resident #1.
