32 | S1 is a staff member in both the Bethesda Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) and the licensed Bethesda Independent Living and Assisted Living facilities. On 01/20/2022, R1, a resident in the SNF, called R1’s counselor and disclosed that S1 had exposed his private parts to R1 and touched R1’s breast. R1 indicated that S1 walked into R1’s room, unzipped his pants and exposed his private parts. R1 told S1 to leave and S1 did. On multiple occasions R1 would reportedly enter R1’s room, and grab R1’s right breast. S1 denied the allegations and stated he was never inappropriate with R1. Staff (S2) indicated that when R1 was admitted, R1 has medication that has a side effect of dream disorder. R1 was assessed by a SNF doctor and placed on anti-psychotics following the allegation. Facility staff (S3 and S4) for both the licensed and SNF facilities believed R1 was hallucinating or having dreams about the incidents. R1 was interviewed and was consistent in disclosure and adamant that S1 assaulted R1. The Police Department took a report but closed the case as unfounded after R1’s daughters stated they believed R1 was hallucinating.
Based on information obtained during the course of investigation, there’s not enough preponderance of evidence to prove that a violation occurred. Therefore, the allegation of conduct inimical is closed as unsubstantiated. No deficiency cited.
