32 | Allegation: Staff are not meeting residents’ hygiene needs
Investigation Finding: Unsubstantiated
During investigation, LPA interviewed client (C1) who stated that he is high functioning, independent and has the personal right to shower and bathe whenever he wants. C1 stated staff always (ADM, S1, S2) remind him to shower, change his clothes, do laundry, clean his room and do household chores such as wash dishes. LPA observed other clients (C2, C3, C4) to be ambulatory, clean, high functioning, independent, odor free and well groomed. During visit on 09/25/24 at 2:30PM, LPA observed C1 clean and odor free. C1 stated that he is working with his behaviorist in addressing his hygiene routines such as taking a shower more than twice a week, using Sensodyne toothpaste and electric brush in cleaning his teeth and routinely washing his clothes. Although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. Therefore, the allegation that staff are not meeting residents’ hygiene needs is unsubstantiated.
Allegation: Staff are bribing residents
Investigation Finding: Unsubstantiated
During investigation, LPA interviewed staff (ED, S1, S2) who stated they do not bribe any client to clean. Clients (C1, C2, C3, C4) confirmed with LPA that staff do not bribe them to clean. Clients (C1, C2, C3, C4) stated staff do not offer them money to do household chores or clean their rooms at the facility. Although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. Therefore, the allegation that staff are bribing residents is unsubstantiated.
