32 | Allegation: Resident caused injury to another resident/Resident(s) was hit by another resident.
During the course of this investigation, LPA Pascua attempted to contact several staff members but was redirected to the Facility Designated Representative (FDR), Ednita Gardenhire. FDR, Gardenhire stated that she does not know of or has seen any of the residents hitting or causing injury to other residents. FDR, Gardenhire stated that R1 does have behaviors such as pinching or hitting. She stated that she believed that R1 does this because does not know how to express themself and will use the behaviors to let staff know that they are in need of something. Based on resident record review, it was learned that R1 has a history of behaviors that include pinching or hitting. FDR, Gardenhire also stated that R3 also has behaviors but is usually mitigated by staff in other ways. It is unclear if an incident did occur, was observed, or was not reported.
Based on information provided through interviews and records reviewed, this allegation is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED, meaning that there was not a preponderance of evidence to prove or disprove that the allegation occurred as reported.
