32 | Regarding the allegation: Staff did not provide adequate supervision resulting in resident sexually abusing another resident. It is being alleged that resident #1 (R1) has dementia with wandering behavior and can be confused/disoriented and might not have the capacity to consent to potential sexual interactions. During LPA's physical tour, LPA reviewed the facility cameras on 08/16/25, where it shows that R1 entered resident #2 (R2)'s room with their walker willingly. R2 was behind R1 walking normally. Let it be noted, R1 in non-ambulatory and R2 is ambulatory. About twenty-five to thirty minutes later, R1 was seen exiting R2's room. Both R1 and R2 continued to look outside of the room on their left and right side to check if anyone was coming in both directions. R1 proceeded to step out of R2's room and R2 came out right behind R1. LPA spoke to R1's daughter via telephone to check if the facility had contacted them and the daughter stated, "yes, they contacted me and stated R1 has the right to do what they want, I cannot stop them and R1 is happy and has not reported anything inappropriate them." LPA also spoke to four (4) staff that confirmed that R1 is always talking to R2 and two (2) staff confirmed that R1 has been seen with R2 on multiple occasions. Two (2) staff also confirmed that they saw R1 on the day of the incident where R1 came into the dining hall with messy hair and R1 seemed happy and did not report anything to them. LPA also interviewed R1 and R2 and they both stated that they are friends and they are both happy. Both also confirmed that they have not been sexually and/or physically abused by anyone. Let it be noted, both R1 and R2 are diagnosed with dementia. Both R1 and R2's Physician Report was obtained. LPA attempted to interview four (4) other residents but they did not understand what the LPA was asking. LPA also obtained the Unusual Incident/Injury Report regarding R1 and R2. Therefore, based on the LPA's observations, staff and resident interviews, the above allegation(s) above is UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time.
An exit interview was conducted, no citation(s) were issued, and a copy of this report was given to the Administrator. |
