32 | According to staff #1 (S1), on February 7, 2026, at approximately 11-12pm, while she was assisting residents on the 2nd floor, she got a call from staff informing her that R1’s family member was looking for her on the 1st floor. When S1 got to the 1st floor, R1’s family member informed her that R2 was in a lot of pain. S1 went to assess R2 who verbalized that he/she was fine and did not have any pain. Subsequently, S1 observed R2 showed some physical changes while eating lunch in the dining room which prompted S1 to reassess R2’s pain level and administered pain medication as R2 stated that he/she was in pain.
Regarding the oxygen and breathing treatment, S1 stated that on February 8, 2026, R1’s family member requested to administer breathing treatment and oxygen for R1. S1 assessed R1 and did not observe R1 was having difficulty breathing but the family member requested it so S1 attempted to do it. However, R1 became resistive and was refusing the treatments so S1 stopped.
On 2/20/26, LPA observed R1 and R2 were in their rooms and both residents appeared comfortable. R2 stated that he/she was not in pain.
Based on documentation, the medication records indicate that on the day of the incident, R2 received pain medications in the morning and as needed pain medication at noon time.
After the investigation, this allegation is deemed to be unsubstantiated as S1 attempted to administer oxygen and breathing treatment for R1 but R1 became resistive and did not want the treatment so S1 stopped. Regarding the pain medication, R2 got the routine pain medication during the morning shift at 7-10 am, and at around noon time when R1 was observed to have pain.
Regarding the allegations of- staff interfered with resident visits and staff conduct poses a risk to residents in care, there was no additional information forthcoming from the reporting party. However, during the initial reporting, the reporting party stated that R1’s family member was told by S1 that he/she did not have the right to go to the 2nd floor because his/her loved one resided on the 1st floor. In addition, the reporting party stated that the family member reported that S1 was screaming, unhinged loud obnoxious inappropriate voice, very angry and told the family member that it was none of his/her business that R2 was in pain. |
