Alleged Victim (AV) relies on the facility for his/her care. AV’s service plan states AV is a fall risk and requires interventions to help minimize the risk of falls. AV utilizes a walker for mobility assistance and tends not to use it when moving around in the room. On or about March 19, 2023, a staff found AV with no brief on, so the staff member went to grab a brief and when they came back, AV fell and landed on their hip and sustained a skin tear. The facility failed to provide a safe environment for AV, which is a violation of resident rights, is neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
