On the allegation: Due to a lack of supervision, one client bit another client in care. LPA conducted interviews with staff and residents which revealed that Resident 1 (R1) was having behaviors that day and R1 was told to finish R1's laundry before bed time. R1 was not complying with staff request. It was during medication time and Staff 2 (S2) was passing medications at the time R1 had just taken medications and it was Resident 2 (R2) turn next. R2 began telling R1 to do R1's laundry, Staff 1(S1) and S2 told R2 to leave R1 alone and not tell R1 what to do, as R1 and R2 were walking down the hall passed the kitchen R2 put R2's hands on R1's shoulders guiding R1 to the laundry area. R1 bite R2 above the wrist below the elbow in the middle of R2's arm. R2 started to cry S1 was able to separate R1 and R2. S1 provided R2 with a Band-Aid, no skin was broken, and no bite marks were present. The facility is a Tri-Counties Regional Center (TCRC) home with behavioral clientele. The staffing that day was two staff which meets the hours requirement set for the facility by TCRC. The facility was not short staffed that day. The incident happened quickly without any indications it would have lead to a resident being bitten, staff acted quickly and separated residents. R1 was scared of R2 size and because R2 has bitten R1 in the past. R1 was not sure what R2 was going to do and got scared so R1 bite R2 and R2 then took R2's hand off of R1. R1 reacted to R2 quickly and S2 was not able to intervene in time. Based on the evidence this allegation is Unsubstantiated at this time.

Exit interview conducted and copy of report emailed to Administrator.
