Findings
The facility failed to follow the Alleged Victim's (AV) care plan to have a caregiver present 24 hours per day. On or about October 29, 2020, the hired caregiver left his/her shift early and left AV without a one to one caregiver for approximately one hour. During this time, AV fell and received an injury to his/her head, requiring stitches. The facility failed to communicate to staff the need to have staff available to cover the short shift of the private caregiver during the hour he/she was unavailable. The facility's failure is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
