Findings
Alleged Victim (AV) relies on the facility for his/her care. On or about, February 13, 2021, the facility lost power due to inclement weather, which resulted in AV's room not having appropriate heat. An investigation determined that staff took AV’s temperature and checked on AV regularly during the power outage; however, facility staff did not keep/track records on AV’s temperature. On February 14, 2021, AV was admitted to the hospital due to hypothermia. The facility failed to provide a safe environment which is a violation of resident rights, is neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
