AI-Generated Summary
State inspectors found that a direct care staff member, Tasha Smith, repeatedly knocked on and then kicked a resident's mattress while attempting to wake them, and used profanity while speaking to another resident — conduct that violated residents' rights to be treated with dignity and respect. This is a repeat violation, having been cited in two prior special investigations at the same facility (in 2023 and 2024) involving similar staff misconduct. Ms. Smith was terminated by the facility on July 20, 2025, prior to the conclusion of the investigation. A written corrective action plan is required within 15 days of the August 5, 2025 letter, and the state recommends no change in license status upon approval of that plan.
