- Alleged Victim (AV) has a history of wounds on his/her legs. AV had an order as of May 30, 2024, for compression hose to be applied every morning and removed every evening. Documentation on AV's MAR does not represent a clear, accurate picture of when compression hose were applied and removed; on 8/6, 8/9, 8/14, 8/19, 8/21 and 8/22/24, it was noted that AV's compression hose had not been applied, but that they had been removed. On or about August 3,2024, skin peeled off AV's legs when AV's compression socks were removed. The skin peeled off AV's legs when compression socks were removed because staff had left the compression socks on longer than they should have. It was reported that on or about August 7, 2024, Alleged Perpetrator (AP2) had failed to toilet AV and provide incontinence care. It was reported that AV was so wet that urine had soaked through AV's pants. It was reported that AV had sores on h/h legs at that time. AP2 failed to provide service to AV, which is neglect of care and constitutes abuse. The facility failed to provide service, which is a violation of resident’s rights is neglect of care and constitutes abuse.
