32 | The details of the complaint alleged that the facility does not provide adequate supervision of the residents. It is alleged that resident (R1) assaulted resident (R2) at the facility with their walker. On 02/21/25, from 9:30am-1:30pm, the department interviewed staff (S1-S2) and residents (R1-R7) regarding the allegation. 2 of 2 staff denied the allegation that Due to lack of supervision, resident physically assaults other residents. All staff (S1-S2) interviewed stated that the facility does have enough staff to supervise the residents in the facility. All staff (S1-S2) denied the allegation that residents are assaulting each other. Staff stated that there was an incident where a resident was praying with their hands to the sky and another resident tried to put their hands down. Staff stated that the resident was not aware of what the other resident was doing and did not know that they were praying. Staff stated that they explained what the resident was doing and not to try and put the residents’ hands down because it was not right to do so. Staff stated that the resident apologized, and it was okay between them after that. But that the resident did not assault or hit the other resident at any time. Staff also stated that they did not witness resident (R1) hit resident (R2) with their walker.
The department interviewed residents (R1-R7) about the allegation and 7 of 7 residents that were interviewed denied the allegation that Due to lack of supervision, resident physically assaults other residents. All residents that were interviewed (7 of 7) stated that they have never been assaulted by any resident at the facility and there is enough staff to supervise the residents in the facility. The department interviewed R1 and R2 about any alleged altercation between the two and both denied any knowledge of an altercation and R1 denied that R1 hit R2 with their walker. R2 also denied that R1 hit R2 with their walker.
The department reviewed the Staff Roster (Dated: 10/30/24) and observed that there is enough staff on the day and night shift to supervise the residents properly.
Based on interviews conducted and records reviewed, there is insufficient evidence to support the allegation that Due to lack of supervision, resident physically assaults other residents. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is Unsubstantiated.
No citations were issued on this complaint visit.
An exit interview was conducted, and a hard copy of this Complaint Investigation Report was provided to Cezar Tuazon, Direct Care Staff.
