The Department reviewed resident's (R1) medical records on 2/22/2021. R1 was taken to the hospital on 11/5/2020 due to having something heavy thrown at R1 with no injuries. Medical records indicate that R1 had a closed nondisplaced fracture on right femur that had existed since 5/4/2020. R1 was placed in the facility in July 2020. Medical staff noted tenderness on R1's left hip, but right hip prosthesis appeared unchanged with no additional injuries.

R1's medical record indicated that on 10/8/2020, R1 was taken to the hospital where it was noted that R1's dementia had been worsening. R1 continues having hallucinations, seeing things, and having confabulating stories. During interview with R1 that took place on 2/22/2021, R1 reiterated that another resident had thrown a chair at R1. R1 was unable to identify which resident threw the chair, nor could R1 identify any witnesses.

The Department interviewed 2 facility residents on 2/25/2021. Neither of the two residents interviewed recalled an incident where a heavy object was thrown at R1. Neither resident could recall being told by R1 that R1 had had a heavy object thrown at R1. One resident (R2) interviewed indicated that R1's dementia was worsening and that R1 would "lie about random stuff."

3 staff interviewed denied R1 suffered any injuries while in care & that R1 was able to walk using the walker the entire time while in the facility. All staff interviewed also stated that R1 believed that others would kick R1 when nobody was around R1. The medical doctor interviewed confirmed that the fracture noted during the 11/5/2020 doctor's visit was the same fracture R1 had in May 2020. There were no new fractures.

The Department has investigated the above allegation. Based on interviews conducted and document review, the Department found the above allegation to be UNFOUNDED, meaning that the allegation was false, could not have happened and/or is without a reasonable basis.

Report reviewed with Erin Wiley, Administrator, and a copy of this report provided for signature.
