Full inspector notes
Finding: Substantiated, individual responsibility Nature of Investigation: The Minnesota Department of Health investigated an allegation of maltreatment, in accordance with the Minnesota Reporting of Maltreatment of Vulnerable Adults Act, Minn. Stat. 626.557, and to evaluate compliance with applicable licensing standards for the provider type. Initial Investigation Allegation(s): The alleged perpetrator (AP) financially exploited Resident #1 when she used his debit card to make unauthorized purchases for herself. The AP financially exploited Resident #2 when she used his credit card to make unauthorized purchases for herself. Investigative Findings and Conclusion: The Minnesota Department of Health determined financial exploitation was substantiated. The AP was responsible for the maltreatment. The AP worked as an unlicensed personnel (ULP) at the facility and had access to Resident #1 and Resident #2’s credit cards. The AP provided direct care and services to both residents in the weeks leading up to the debit and credit cards going missing. The AP was seen on surveillance footage using Resident #1’s credit card to purchase $180.80 of household supplies at a retail store. The AP was wearing a name badge from the assisted living facility while making the purchase. The AP was also seen on surveillance footage An equal opportunity employer. using Resident #1’s credit card to purchase $325.156 of tires. The AP was seen on surveillance footage using Resident #2’s credit card to make two purchases at another retail store. The investigator conducted interviews with facility staff members, including administrative staff, nursing staff, and unlicensed staff. The investigator also contacted law enforcement. The investigation included review of facility records including recent assessments, the resident service plans, and progress notes, bank records, and the police report. At the time of the onsite visit, the investigator observed care and services provided by staff in the facility. Resident #1 resided in an assisted living facility. The resident’s diagnoses included hemiplegia (paralysis of one side of the body), hemiparesis (a condition causing weakness or paralysis on one side of the body) and familial spastic paraplegia syndrome (an inherited neurological disorder causing progressive weakness and stiffness of the legs). The resident’s service plan included assistance with dressing, grooming, bathing, transferring, and medication administration. The resident’s assessment indicated the resident was dependent upon staff to perform most activities of daily living. Resident #2 resided in an assisted living facility. The resident’s diagnoses included chronic kidney disease and heart failure. The resident’s service plan included assistance with dressing, grooming, bathing, and medication administration. The resident’s assessment indicated the resident was dependent upon staff to perform most activities of daily living. Resident #1 Bank statements for September 2023 indicated 19 unauthorized charges totaling $1,472.23 were made over a seven-day period. Charges on the debit card included $325.15 at a tire store, a total of $225 over seven transactions at a night club, and several other charges at clothing stores, gas stations, and fast food restaurants. A police report for Resident #1 included surveillance footage identifying the AP using the resident’s debit card at two locations. The AP was seen purchasing $325.15 of tires using the resident’s debit card. The AP was seen purchasing $180.80 of household goods including sheets, candles, and storage bins, at a large retail store using the resident’s debit card. The resident’s account was overdrawn due to the unauthorized charges, causing his September 2023 charges for the assisted living facility to not go through due to insufficient funds. During an interview, the resident’s power of attorney (POA) stated the resident told her he was missing his debit card and she figured it was just misplaced, but when she checked his bank account, she noticed a lot of charges were made after the card went missing. The POA stated she cancelled the card right away and informed the facility. Resident #2 Credit card statements for Resident #2 indicated the most recent balance was $7,032.71. Of that balance, $1,907.31 was a cash advance at 29.99% interest. Charges on the card included $164.05 at a party supply store, $85.97 at a clothing store, and several charges at gas stations, liquor stores, fast food, big box retail stores, nail salons, cosmetic stores, cell phone stores, coffee shops, various clothing stores, and car washes. In total, over a three-month period, 125 unauthorized charges were made to the resident’s credit card. During an interview, Resident #2 stated he is legally blind so he cannot read his credit card statements. The resident stated he only used that card to charge books for his electronic tablet and thought it originally had a balance of around $2,000, so he was very surprised when his wife said it was $7,000. Resident #2’s wife stated since the credit card was only used to purchase electronic books, she had the account set up to automatically pay the minimum balance and one day when she looked at the statement, “it had gone all the way up to $7,000” and she “thought something had gone wrong here so I started to do some checking.” The resident’s wife stated the credit card was usually kept in a file cabinet, along with some cash to pay for haircuts, in the resident’s room; when she went to look for the card it was not there and $70 in cash was also missing. Resident #2’s wife stated she went to the bank branch and had them print out recent statements for her and she did not recognize any of the charges. During an interview, facility management stated they were contacted by police a few months ago and asked to help identify a person pictured in surveillance footage using a stolen credit card. The person in the footage was wearing a facility name tag and was identified as the AP. Since the AP was a suspect in a crime, she was removed from the schedule and management tried to contact the AP to discuss the incident further. The AP did not return phone calls and was then terminated from employment at the facility. A few weeks later, a resident reported their credit card also had fraudulent charges and they suspected the AP was responsible. Shortly after that, another resident reported fraudulent credit card charges were made and money was missing from their room. Facility staff reported the concerns to the police and submitted MAARC reports for both residents. In conclusion, the Minnesota Department of Health determined financial exploitation was substantiated for Resident #1 and Resident #2.
