Individual As behavior (door slamming, yelling) causes Individual Bs self-abusive behavior (biting self, head banging) What type of reporting should be done?
A. The safety and well-being of all individuals is of paramount concern in all incidents. Licensees should look at the circumstances surrounding the incident and take action accordingly, such as separating people, providing appropriate level of supervision, etc. For this particular incident, reporting on injuries sustained by Individual B depends on the type of injury sustained. Although the incident itself may not be reportable, the team needs to be aware of the situation and take preventive action. If not, again this could be considered neglect.
