Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Delmundo arrived unannounced to investigate the above allegation. LPA met with Adrian Escueta, administrator (ADM), and informed the reason for visit.

During investigation, LPA interviewed ADM who stated that the clinic informed them that R1's medications will be refilled for up to September 17, 2024; however, 1week before September 2024, the pharmacy called and informed him that C1's medications no longer have refills. C1 missed medications from September 1 to 23, 2024. LPA obtained and reviewed R1's doctor's order of medications, Medication Administration Record (MAR), Special Incident Report (SIR) and LIC622 Centrally Stored Medication and Destruction Records. MAR confirmed C1's missed 5 medications on the said dates.
