AV's service plan does not specify what tasks or processes that staff need to assist AV with regarding his/her ostomy bag, even though several chart notes document AV's frustration with the bag. The facility's failure to provide assistance with AV's bag led to a loss of personal dignity for AV. The facility's failure is a violation of resident rights, is considered neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
