Review of a facility investigation dated 3/7/16 .in regards to the 'incident' on (MONTH) 3: With that being said, this is a recount of (Resident #22's) experience: It started off that the blinds were closed and couldn't see outside, so I leaned over to look outside (and my bed was up how I like it). I fooled around and my legs came off the bed, so I pushed the button to get help. So this guy came in and put my legs back on and said that I've messed up again. After that, he came to the end of the bed and started messing with my controls and putting my bed down. I asked what he was doing and he told me I couldn't have my bed up. I've been here for [AGE] years and never been told that. He lowered the bed and said 'I'll fix it so you can't ever raise it again.' After that, I probably told him he was acting like a pest. I wasn't happy. He was standing by the other bed, came running over, jumps on top of me, grabs me, and holds my arms, laughing like crazy . Interview with the Administrator on 4/19/16 at 3:30 PM, in the conference room revealed the facility had problems with computer compatibility to report the allegation of abuse, (Administrator became aware of the allegation of abuse on 3/4/16, when the resident's son contacted the Administrator) which occurred on 3/3/16.
