32 | The investigation revealed the following: Regarding allegation “Staff made an inappropriate comment to a resident in care,” it was reported that R1 shared that during mealtime R1 was served and slammed "a big pile of food on the table" with staff saying, "so you can stop complaining." Interviews with residents revealed 5 out of 5 residents deny the allegation. R1 stated they did not complain. R1 stated sometimes they have a bad day and will vent but did not complain about staff speaking inappropriately. R1 stated they have no problems with staff and R1 does not feel staff speak inappropriately to residents. R1 stated sometimes staff speak with familiarity, like family, but not inappropriate. R3 stated staff are not inappropriate, “staff treat us good.” Interviews with staff revealed 5 out of 5 staff interviewed deny the allegation. S4 stated residents always talk to S4 and residents have not said anything about staff speaking inappropriately. S1 stated when residents express concerns, the concerns are addressed immediately. S1 stated they had not received any complaints from R1 indicating staff spoke inappropriately. S1 also stated that R1 has no problem with letting staff know when they have a concern. S2 stated staff are careful of the way they speak to residents. LPA observed lunch service and residents were happy and interacted well with serving staff.
Based on observation, interviews and record review, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is no preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.
An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was provided to Administrator Kim Commodore. |
