Asked RCM #3 to verify behavior log documentation on 10/02/16, and RCM #3 was not able to find any progress notes in the EMR to corroborate with the behavior monitoring log. The RCM #3 stated that the nurse on that date during evening shift would know what happened. Queried RCM #3 if the staff that observed Resident #90 kissing another resident made an incident report, and RCM #3 stated that there were no progress notes on the incident on 10/02/2016 but that social worker (SW) services may have the documentation. On 10/27/2016 at 9:56 AM interviewed social workers (SW), and both SWs stated that they investigated the incident of Resident #90 kissing a female resident after being informed by LN #4. According to both SWs, Resident #90 was interviewed and counseled about inappropriate behavior of kissing female resident in the TV lobby. Resident #90 claimed to have given a female resident a chaste kiss of Aloha on the cheek after receiving condolences on the recent passing of his wife. Resident #90 apologized to the SWs for kissing the female resident and stated that he is Hawaiian style and wanted to thank her with a kiss on the cheek. The SWs both stated that Resident #90 understood after being told by them that kissing of other resident is inappropriate in the facility. The SW's stated that they also spoke with the female resident and she didn't think that Resident #90 had any sexual overtures and didn't feel offended or unsafe in the facility. When asked for documentation of SW interviewing and counseling of residents on the incident and inappropriate sexual behaviors, both SW's had none to provide. Both SW's stated that they developed a care plan (CP), to address Resident #90's inappropriate behaviors. On 10/27/2016 at 10:22 AM interviewed LN #4 who had witnessed the incident of Resident #90 kissing a female resident in the TV lobby. According to LN #4, she saw Resident #90 bend down and kiss the female resident more towards her lips than the cheek area and repeatedly. LN #4 was at the nursing station within view of the TV lobby on the third floor where the female resident was sitting. Resident #90 was ambulating around the unit with the FWW and stopped to talk to the female resident. It was then that LN #4 observed Resident #90 bend down to kiss the female resident more than once. The LN #4 called out to Resident #90 to stop and another LN #5 ran over to separate them. From LN #4's observations the female resident was holding on to Resident #90 hand and didn't want to separate. Also, LN #4 had observed Resident #90 masturbating in the TV lobby, and resident would be looking around to see if anyone around. LN #4 stated that when they observed Resident #90 masturbating, they was sitting at the nursing station and stood up to ask Resident #90 if everything was ok and resident replied, I'm Ok and stopped what he was doing. LN #4 stated that they wern't the only one that observed Resident #90 masturbating in the TV lobby because other nursing staff have also reported same observations.

Resident #90 was concerned because the DON observed the resident the evening before that conversation, sitting in the TV area with hands on his groin area. The DON stated that they had discussed with Resident #90 that others could perceive this differently and think it was inappropriate. The resident stated that they tend to sit like that and agreed it could be observed doing something inappropriate. The DON stated that they did not talk to Resident #90 about masturbating in the TV lobby. The DON verified that there was no documentation on Resident #90's inappropriate sexual behaviors as discussed by the SWs, nursing staff and themselves. On 10/27/2016 at 10:50 AM, interviewed RCM #3 and he stated that their role is that of a nursing supervisor. The RCM #3 stated that after nurses reported inappropriate sexual behaviors displayed by Resident #90, the incidents were reported to the team (DON & SWs).
