Complaint Investigation Report

There were 2 staff present at this time and the resident was treated immediately.

On 4/1/22, it was reported that R1 had tripped and and sustained a cut on R1's private area. Staff present at the time of that injury were interviewed about 11:30 AM over the telephone. Staff indicated that all residents were sleeping and that the night staff was just finishing mopping the floor, when R1 woke up and ran to the bathroom and tripped on a bucket. R1 was wet and staff assisted the resident in the bathroom to dry R1. While drying R1, staff observed a small cut on R1's private area. Staff indicated that R1 became agitated with the injury and began pulling at the wound and creating more damage. Staff stated that this agitation continued at the hospital, where hospital staff were needed to to assist in restraining the resident so that the wound could be treated.

Based on a review of R1's pertinent documentation and interviews conducted with staff, the facility has remained sufficiently staffed and injuries that have occurred have been self inflicted, therefore this allegation is deemed unsubstantiated at this time.

Exit interview conducted and report issued.
