On or about December 5, 2019, Alleged Victim (AV) and Witness 1 (W1) had an altercation that caused injury to AV when AV entered his/her former bedroom and was physically attacked by W1. During the time of incident, W1 lifted AV off the floor and then slammed AV on the ground, causing AV to suffer a hip fracture and AV was sent to hospital for treatment. AV and W1 have engaged in previous altercations in which W1 was the aggressor. The facility failed to address W1's behavior to ensure interventions were in place to protect AV from W1's aggressive behavior. The facility's failure is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
