Findings
The Alleged Victim (AV) is care planned to have his fingernails cut by a Nurse or podiatrist, however, AV's care plan states caregivers are responsible. AV refuses nail care, however, AV's care plan does not have interventions for staff when AV refuses nail care. On or about August 6, 2023, AV was found with a scratch on his/her buttock, assumed from his/her own nails. The facility failed to provide nail hygiene care to AV, leading to AV having a scratch. The facility's failure is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
