25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Stephanie Torres, contacted the facility via telephone to commence a case management televisit due to COVID-19. The LPA identified herself and discussed the purpose of the call with Executive Director (ED), Mandy Taylor.
The Department received an Unusual Incident Report (UIR) on August 04, 2020 pertaining to Resident One (R1). The UIR detailed the attempted suicide of R1 on July 30, 2020 at approximately 9:00 PM. The report details staff, during a routine check, observing R1 to be cutting into their left wrist with scissors and a butter knife.
On this visit the LPA conducted staff interviews and, assisted by Taylor, toured the bedroom of R1. According to Taylor, the resident had no history of self harm or suicidal behavior and the resident's medical assessment noted no diagnosis of cognitive disease. Interviews reported discussion with R1's responsible party and a staffing service was conducted and a personal caregiver was arranged for R1 by the time they were discharged back to the facility on August 05, 2020. The LPA will review reports received from the facility and follow-up if necessary. No health and safety concerns were observed on this televisit.
An exit interview was conducted with ED Taylor via telephone and a copy of this report was provided to Taylor via email. Report with facility representative signature was obtained. |
