On 08/05/22 at 4:53PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) D Panlilio conducted an unannounced subsequent visit and met with administrator to deliver the findings of above allegations. LPA explained the purpose of the visit with administrator.

Allegation: Resident sustained injury while in care resulting in a bruised nose
Investigation Finding: UNSUBSTANTIATED
Based on interviews and record reviews, resident (R1) has dementia with sundowning syndrome, confused, hallucinates, a fall risk and would constantly attempt to get out of bed. LPA interviewed staff who stated R1 may have accidentally bruised his nose hitting his bed rail while trying to get out of bed. Staff denied pinching R1’s nose. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did occur, therefore the allegation that resident sustained injury while in care resulting in a bruised nose is unsubstantiated.

Allegation: Staff are not able to meet resident’s needs
Investigation Finding: UNSUBSTANTIATED
Based on interviews and record reviews, resident (R1) was admitted at the facility on 02/03/22 and was relocated to another facility on 04/19/22. During R1’s stay at the facility, staff stated R1 was a fall risk, highly agitated, confused, hallucinating, a combative sundowner and incessantly attempts to climb out of bed. Staff stated they changed R1’s diaper 5 to 8 times daily with wash-ups and periodic attempts to turn and sit him up for socialization with other residents.

Review of medication administration records show that staff followed doctor’s prescribed medications for R1 including Zoloft. R1 also had therapy exercise sessions (Mondays & Wednesdays) at the facility for 30 to 45 minutes with a massage therapist with staff helping R1 exercise on days that the therapist was not visiting. A change in prescription medication was subsequently ordered by R1's doctor early April 2022 from Zoloft to Seroquel to aid in R1's worsening nightly agitation as reported to POA by staff.

Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.

Exit interview conducted and a copy of this report provided via email.
