GLENWOOD, Iowa — The State run Glenwood Resource Center is in trouble once again. The facility was cited for putting a resident in jeopardy, when a patient was accidentally be deprived of oxygen for a time. KETV reports an investigation revealed that a man’s oxygen had been shut off to move him — and wasn’t turned back on. Inspectors say the man was checked on four times and no one noticed. Once the oxygen was back on, nearly 3 hours later, the man recovered. State inspectors said this is another case of the facility’s lack of staff training.

The GRC is set to close permanently in 2024. Trouble at the Center came to light in 2019 with allegations of abuse and experiments on the developmentally disabled. That led to a federal investigation, and in December 2021, the justice department condemned how the facility was run. In June, a citation report filed by the Iowa Department of Inspections and Appeals showed that a 30-year-old resident at the Glenwood Resource Center died of dehydration.

The report alleges that a “lack of training and communication” led to the man being given lower fluids than were ordered for him several times over a one-month period.
