- Findings
- The facility failed to protect residents from financial exploitation. First discovered in June 2019, money was missing from resident's personal incidental funds, approximately $370.00. By September 2019, the missing amount had grown to approximately $505.00 in missing resident funds. In this case, the resident was found to be missing approximately $100.00. Alleged Perpetrator #2 (AP2) was responsible for the personal incidental fund accounts, however, never received proper training in caring for the funds and it was determined that AP2 was not the only staff that had access to the funds. The facility is ultimately responsible for the funds. The facility's failure is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes financial abuse.
