Summary
The facility failed to report an allegation of abuse within the required two-hour timeframe. On 4/20/25 at 11:30 AM, a Geriatric Nursing Assistant observed bruises on a resident's right ankle and, upon inquiry, the resident stated that a GNA had been rough and aggressive with them the previous day. Although this information was documented, the facility did not report the incident to the Office of Health Care Quality until 1:10 PM, exceeding the mandated reporting window. The Nursing Home Administrator acknowledged that the incident was not reported within the required timeframe during the surveyor's review.
