Findings
The Alleged Victim (AV) has a catheter which is cared for by an outside care agency. The facility is responsible to ensure the catheter area is clean, the catheter is emptied when necessary and remains unclogged. On multiple occasions, (AV) was found soaked from his/her catheter coming unhooked and having urine leak, causing unreasonable discomfort. The facility failed to check AV often enough to ensure he/she stayed dry and comfortable. The facility's failure is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
