Findings
The Alleged Victim (AV) relies on the facility for his/her care. AV was care planned for shower assistance one-two times a week and staff is also allowed to offer a bed bath. According to investigation, on or about May 7, 2024, Alleged Perpetrator 2 (AP2) was assisting AV with a shower and when AP2 turned to put up the shower wand, AV fell off the shower chair, resulting in AV bumping his/her head and reporting pain to his/her left hip. It was discovered that AV’s family had previously requested the facility not give AV showers due to safety reasons and history of AV falling in the shower. The facility failed to appropriately care plan, which is a violation of resident rights, is neglect of care which constitutes abuse. The allegation that Alleged Perpetrator 2 (AP2) neglected AV was investigated and determined to be not substantiated.
