Prior complaint investigations also revealed a substantiated medication error in which a staff member gave one resident another resident's medication by mistake. Earlier complaints about rough handling, yelling at residents, and leaving a non-ambulatory resident in bed all day were investigated but findings on those allegations are incomplete in the available report.
