Staff did not provide adequate supervision to client in care. - UNSUBSTANTIATED

It was reported that a client began cooking on the stove completely unsupervised while staff had stepped away with another client.

Staff stated that staff were busy with other clients and when they saw that C1 had a pot of water staff intervened and C1 agreed to wait for staff to help them. Since the incident C1 lets staff know when they want to do things and staff watch C1.

Administrator stated they hadn’t heard of this incident. If the client wanted to cook they would be OK with it and would accommodate with the Translator app.

It was determined that there was one incident when C1 attempted to use the stove without notifying staff first. Now C1 is aware that they must notify staff when they want to cook. This allegation is unsubstantiated.

Personal rights. - UNSUBSTANTIATED

It was reported that a client does not speak English which has made it essentially impossible to communicate with the client and impairs their level of care.

On 12/11/2025 LPA toured the facility and saw signs hung throughout the facility that were written in Client 1’s (C1) language. LPA observed staff communicating with C1 using a translator app on their phone and C1 used their own phone to communicate with staff.

All staff interviewed stated they used a translator app on their phones to communicate with C1 without issues.

Administrator stated staff use a translation app or we have a Medi Cal translator that we call. We do groups in the client’s language and have signs on all doors in their language. The client’s family is very involved and will relay messages.

It was determined the facility has a Medi Cal translator available to accommodate C1’s communication needs. Staff are all trained on how to effectively communicate with C1 using mobile applications and C1 is proficient in using the apps. This enables staff and C1 to communicate effectively. This allegation is unsubstantiated.

Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred, and the findings are UNSUBSTANTIATED.

No deficiencies cited. Exit interview conducted and a copy of the report was provided to administrator Christa Carrasco.
