Gastrostomy care not provided by professionally trained staff
During the course of investigation, LPAs interviewed staff and reviewed records. Based on proof of staff training provided to LPAs, 5 staff were trained by a registered nurse (RN) on 9/9/2024. Administrator states the RN who conducted the training is not affiliated with any home health agency.
During interviews conducted with staff, S9 denied providing care to C1 because of lack of training in gastrostomy care. S7 states that S7 received training from S8 and S10. S7 had only had shadow training hours for C1's care.
LPAs reviewed proof of training provided. The proof of training does not indicate the topics discussed and the date it was signed by the nurse. LPAs observed that S9 name was added manually to the list with a 9-9-24 date written next to S9 name.
Based on interviews and record reviews which were conducted, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegations are found to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, Title 22 are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D.
Exit interview was conducted with Licensee and Appeal Rights was provided.
