32 | When interviewed, R1 alleged that their privacy rights have been violated by their roommate and R3. R1 also alleged that their roommate and R3 created an uncomfortable environment for them. However, based on information obtained from one out three resident interviews, it was alleged that R1 has been verbally abusive towards their roommate and R3. It was also alleged that R1 has been purposely turning off their roommate’s television and causing an uncomfortable environment for them. According to one out of three residents, they did not have any problems or concerns with R1. Due to conflicting statements made by residents during interviews, there was not sufficient evidence to support the allegations being made.
Also, during this investigation, four staff members were interviewed. Statements given during staff interviews were consistent that R1’s privacy has not been violated and has been provided with a comfortable environment. It was also learned that facility staff members have offered to move R1 to a different bedroom to better meet their needs, however; R1 declined to move to a different bedroom. In addition, facility staff has addressed privacy concerns with resident 3 (R3) and R1’s roommate. Staff have also addressed verbal abuse concerns with R3.
Due to the above noted information, although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, and therefore the allegations are unsubstantiated.
An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was provided to the facility. |
