Findings
On or about February 13, 2022, Alleged Victim (AV) experienced chest pains in which he/she pressed his/her pendant seeking help multiple times. An investigation determined that facility staff ignored AV's call for help and AV had to call 911. When Emergency Medical Services (EMS) arrived at facility, it was determined that AV had to be transferred to hospital for treatment. The facility's failure to provide basic care and services (timely response to request for assistance) resulted in AV experiencing delayed access to medical care/treatment for pain. This failure is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
