On 12/04/2023, it was reported that a staff found R1 with a pair of scissors and minor injury to the body inside his/her apartment. Resident was transported to the hospital for medical attention. R1’s family was informed. Based on interview, the scissors was brought into R1’s apartment located in assisted living during admission. Residents are allowed to have this item based on review of the resident's medical records. If there is any indication these items would pose a risk to the residents, the facility would communicate the concern with family and/or the resident. Prior to the incident R1 did not show any signs of self-harm. After the incident, the staff did a room check and removed all items which could be harmful to the resident and returned all objects that could be harmful to the family member. Based on record review, R1 was diagnosed with a mild cognitive impairment. R1's records did not indicate a risk for self-harm or any inappropriate behavior. After the incident, R1 was provided a private 24/7 companion and is stated to be doing well. The facility conducted a re-assessment and in-service training with staff.
Around 4:15PM, LPA and the Executive Director entered R1's apartment. R1 granted permission to LPA to tour R1's apartment.
