88	GUAM MEMORIAL HOSPITAL AUTHORITY	655000	499 NORTH SABANA DRIVE	BARRIGADA	GU	96913	2010-09-17	226	D	0	1	7DPX11	Based on interview and document review, the facility failed to develop and implement policies and procedures that prohibited abuse when one staff member interviewed was unable to identify the different kinds of abuse. Findings include: 1. On 9/16/10, CNA 1 (certified nursing assistant) was interviewed regarding abuse and emergency preparedness. CNA1 stated that she had received abuse training earlier this year (2010) but could not recall the month when the training was conducted. When asked to identify the different forms of abuse she could only recall physical and verbal abuse and not other forms of abuse such as sexual, mental, involuntary seclusion and corporal punishment. 2. A review of the facility's policy and procedure on abuse training revealed that "Hospital/SNU (Skilled Nursing Unit) staff shall be educated regarding recognition of abuse, identification of victims of abuse, and the mandatory reporting duties. Staff education will take place during employee orientation, as well as in unit-specific in-service training programs and other hospital-wide training sessions. These training sessions shall include information on the role of the hospital/SNU staff in situations of abuse, criteria for identifying victims, statutory reporting requirements, and referrals for appropriate services." The "General Orientation Checklist/Agenda" from the education department included watching a video from social services regarding Referrals: Identifying Victims of Abuse (video). A sign-in sheet was provided for an inservice on "Reporting Adult Abuse" conducted by DPHSS Adult Protective Services on 9/3/10. The informational material provided by the educational department regarding the video however was related to "Domestic Abuse."	2014-12-01
