OAR 411-054-0028 (1-3) Reporting & Investigating Abuse-Other Action (Amended 12/15/21)(1) The facility must have policies and procedures in place to assure the prevention and appropriate response to any incident. In the case of incidents of abuse, suspected abuse, or injury of unknown cause, policies and procedures must follow the requirements outlined below. In the case of incidents that are not abuse or injuries of unknown cause where abuse has been ruled out, the facility must have policies and procedures in place to respond appropriately, which may include such things as re-assessment, monitoring, or medication review. (2) ABUSE REPORTING. Abuse is prohibited. The facility employees, agents and licensee must not permit, aid, or engage in abuse of residents who are under their care. (a) STAFF REPORTING. All facility employees are required to immediately report abuse and suspected abuse to the local SPD office, or the local AAA, the facility administrator, or to the facility administrator's designee. (b) FACILITY REPORTING. The facility administrator, or designee, must immediately notify the local SPD office, or the local AAA, of any incident of abuse or suspected abuse, including events overheard or witnessed by observation. (c) LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY. The local law enforcement agency must be called first when the suspected abuse is believed to be a crime (e.g., rape, murder, assault, burglary, kidnapping, theft of controlled substances, etc.). (d) INJURY OF UNKNOWN CAUSE. Physical injury of unknown cause must be reported to the local SPD office, or the local AAA, as suspected abuse, unless an immediate facility investigation reasonably concludes and documents that the physical injury is not the result of abuse. (3) FACILITY INVESTIGATION. In addition to immediately reporting abuse or suspected abuse to SPD, AAA, or the law enforcement agency, the facility must promptly investigate all reports of abuse and suspected abuse and take measures necessary to protect residents and prevent the reoccurrence of abuse. Investigation of suspected abuse must document: (a) Time, date, place and individuals present; (b) Description of the event as reported; (c) Response of staff at the time of the event; (d) Follow-up action; and (e) Administrator's review. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure incidents of abuse were immediately reported to the local Department office for 1 of 1 sampled resident (#1) who was reviewed for behaviors that negatively impacted other residents. Findings include, but are not limited to: Resident 1 was admitted to the MCC in 03/2026 with diagnoses including dementia. Staff reported in the acuity interview on 04/06/26 that the resident had multiple physical and verbal altercations with other residents since admit.

OAR 411-054-0040 (1-2) Change of Condition and Monitoring (1) CHANGE OF CONDITION. These rules define a resident's change of condition as either short term or significant with the following meanings: (a) Short term change of condition means a change in the resident's health or functioning that is expected to resolve or be reversed with minimal intervention or is an established, predictable, cyclical pattern associated with a previously diagnosed condition. (b) Significant change of condition means a major deviation from the most recent evaluation that may affect multiple areas of functioning or health that is not expected to be short term and imposes significant risk to the resident.(c) If a resident experiences a significant change of condition that is a major deviation in the resident's health or functional abilities, the facility must evaluate the resident, refer to the facility nurse, document the change, and update the service plan as needed. (d) If a resident experiences a short-term change of condition that is expected to resolve or reverse with minimal intervention, the facility must determine and document what action or intervention is needed for the resident. (A) The determined action or intervention must be communicated to staff on each shift. (B) The documentation of staff instructions or interventions must be resident specific and made part of the resident record with weekly progress noted until the condition resolves. (2) MONITORING. The facility must have written policies to ensure a resident monitoring and reporting system is implemented 24-hours a day. The policies must specify staff responsibilities and identify criteria for notifying the administrator, registered nurse, or healthcare provider. The facility must: (a) Monitor each resident consistent with his or her evaluated needs and service plan; (b) Train staff to identify changes in the resident's physical, emotional and mental functioning and document and report on the resident's changes of condition; (c) Have a reporting protocol with access to a designated staff person, 24-hours a day, seven days a week, who can determine if a change in the resident's condition requires further action; and (d) Provide written communication of a resident's change of condition, and any required interventions, for caregivers on each shift. This Rule is not met as evidenced by: Based on interview and record review, it was determined the facility failed to ensure residents were monitored consistent with evaluated needs and service plan and/or failed to ensure actions or interventions were determined for short-term changes of condition and residents were monitored with weekly progress noted to resolution for 2 of 5 sampled residents (#s 1 and 5) whose resident-to-resident altercations were reviewed. Findings include, but are not limited to: 1. Resident 1 was admitted to the facility in 03/2026 with diagnoses including dementia. Staff reported in the acuity interview on 04/06/26 that the resident had multiple physical and verbal altercations with multiple sampled and unsampled residents since admit. The resident’s 03/03/26 to 04/06/26 clinical record was reviewed, and the following was identified: Resident 1 was involved in several resident-to resident altercations, including physical and verbal, was frequently found urinating in inappropriate areas and dressed inappropriately in common areas, was resistant to care, and made frequent attempts to enter other residents’ rooms. Interventions listed on the current service plan, dated 03/31/26, included: * Staff to use a one-person approach when redirecting; * Keep eye contact and stay calm; and * Give resident tasks and other busy work. There was no documented evidence the facility monitored the resident consistent with evaluated needs and service plan, including whether interventions were effective and what new interventions were attempted. In an interview at 9:18 am on 04/08/26, Staff 4 (Assistant Wellness Director/LPN) confirmed the lack of monitoring consistent with Resident 1’s evaluated needs and service plan. The need to ensure residents were monitored consistent with evaluated needs and service plan was discussed with Staff 1 (Campus Administrator), Staff 2 (MCC Administrator), Staff 3 (Wellness Director/RN), and Staff 4 at 1:20 pm on 04/08/26. They acknowledged the findings. 2. Resident 5 was admitted to the facility in 12/2025 with diagnoses including dementia. The resident’s 03/08/26 service plan and 03/11/26 to 04/06/26 observation notes were reviewed. Resident 1’s clinical record was also reviewed. The following was identified: * Staff documented in Resident 1’s clinical record on 03/11/26: “during swing [Resident 5] reported [Resident 1] going into [his/her] room being aggressive…[Resident 5] said [Resident 1] didn’t hit [him/her] but [Resident 5] was afraid [s/he] would…[Resident 5] has been in distress since the event”; and * Staff documented in Resident 5’s clinical record on 03/13/26: “[Resident 5] was in [his/her] room asleep when [Resident 1] went in [his/her] room…[Resident 5 said] [s/he] grabbed [his/her] arm…I examined [Resident 5, and s/he] has a bruise on [his/her left] arm.” There was no documented evidence the facility determined actions or interventions for the above resident-to-resident altercations, and there was no documented evidence the facility monitored Resident 5, with progress noted at least weekly to resolution, for the altercations and the resultant bruise. In an interview at 9:18 am on 04/08/26, Staff 4 (Assistant Wellness Director/LPN) confirmed actions and interventions were not determined, and the resident was not monitored for the above short-term changes of condition. The need to ensure actions or interventions for short-term changes of condition were determined and residents were monitored, with weekly progress noted to resolution, was discussed with Staff 1 (Campus Administrator), Staff 2 (MCC Administrator), Staff 3 (Wellness Director/RN), and Staff 4 at 1:20 pm on 04/08/26.
