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.

Review of the resident's 04/22/25 through 07/21/25 progress notes, 06/03/25 service plan, and interim service plans revealed the following: * 04/22/25 - "One resident got up and wanted to go down to lunch when [Resident 1] physically stopped [him/her] by grabbing [his/her] wrist and telling the other resident to sit back down.” Review of the investigation into the incident revealed the incident was not reported to the local SPD office and the investigation lacked documentation of the date of the incident and the administrator's review. During an interview on 07/23/25 at 9:10 am, Staff 1 (Director of People and Operations) confirmed the incident was not reported to the local SPD office and the investigation lacked the required information. The facility was directed to report the incident to SPD. On 07/24/25 at 8:35 am, documentation was provided to the survey team that SPD had been notified. The need to immediately report abuse to the local SPD office and ensure investigations into abuse included the date of the incident and the administrator’s review was discussed with Staff 1 and Staff 2 (ALF RN) on 07/23/25 at 3:12 pm. They acknowledged the findings.
