Regarding the allegation that staff does not treat resident with dignity and respect, R2 stated that staff blame him for everything because he is more high functioning. LPA Campbell asked what they blame him for, R2 responded, “They blame me for stuff when I joke around.” R2 could not provide further details. When LPA asked if staff shout at him or call him names, R2 stated no.

Due to the above noted information, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur, and therefore this allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
