When asked about this, the patient states that he placed his hand on his thigh but did not touch any other areas of the patient's body. Staff made the DON aware who reported this incident. Both the DON and I had a lengthy conversation with the patient regarding inappropriate behaviors to include touching someone on their thigh without consent and the patient understands and states that he will not do this again. The patient appears apologetic for his actions." An interview was conducted on December 12, 2024 at 8:54 AM with Social Services Director (staff #163).
