Home Care Services Bureau Enforcement Analyst (EA) Ryan Chan arrived at the business office of Angel Connection Nursing Services on 10/16/24 for a biennial inspection. Upon arrival, EA identified himself and was greeted by Executive Director Mel Redondo, then shortly after HR Manager Laila Dominguez arrived. The proper posting of business hours and license was observed. EA was then shown to an area where the review of personnel and administrative files could be performed. Upon completion of the file review the analyst discussed the findings of the inspection with Mel Redondo and Laila Dominguez. EA informed them of the deficiencies found and explained they would be noted on the 809D. Mel Redondo and Laila Dominguez were advised that home care aide (HCA) staff without proof of negative tb test are not to be with clients.

EA concluded the visit with an exit interview and provided a copy of this report along with appeal rights.
