On 03/27/2022, staff witnessed R1 with the suspected abuser (SA), who were both naked in the shower. The SA was a regular visitor and trusted family member of R1. On 10/18/2023, two (2) staff witnessed suspicious behavior between R1 and the SA while they were sitting on a bench. The staff reported their concerns for R1, yet the incident was not reported. The incident was documented with the facility, but not reported to CCL or Adult Protective Services (APS).
