Summary
The facility failed to develop and implement effective policies and procedures to prevent abuse, neglect, and theft. Surveyors identified that the facility did not have adequate systems in place to ensure the protection of residents from these types of mistreatment.

The absence of comprehensive policies and procedures contributed to an environment where residents were at risk for harm.
