The investigation was conducted by LPA Jacobs consisted of interviews with the Executive Director, facility staff, resident (R-1) and other witnesses at the care home. Facility site inspections were conducted and facility and resident records were requested, obtained and reviewed. The investigation concluded that the resident (R-1) sustained an minor (1 cm x 1 cm) skin tear to the back of her leg, likely caused by her wheelchair. Care staff observed the injury the evening of 11/16/21, reported to the facility nurse the following day. The resident's doctor was contacted, wrote an order for Home Health and Home Health treated the injury that healed in around 3 weeks. There was one order from the doctor and that order was followed in a timely manner.
This agency has investigated the above listed allegation and determined that there no evidence that he injury to the resident was caused by neglect or that the facility did not follow the doctor's order(s). Therefore, these allegations are without a reasonable basis and determined to be UNFOUNDED. |
