32 | Following is the summary of the investigation findings:
On 04/13/2026, LPA Chochian conducted an initial 10-day complaint visit was conducted. During the visit a physical plant tour was conducted with staff. During the tour, LPA observed the common areas, and random resident rooms. During the tour LPA met with and interviewed seven (7) residents between 12pm-1:30pm. LPA also requested and reviewed resident records from approximately 1:40pm - 2:30pm.
On 04/13/2026, IB Investigator conducted an unannounced site visit to this facility. Investigator conducted interviews with R1 at approximately 12:56 P.M. and R2 at approximately 2:22P.M. In addition, Executive Director (ED) Rose Anguiano was interviewed on 05/08/2026 at approximately 2:58P.M. and records were reviewed.
Information gathered reflected that R1 denied allegations of being sexually or physically abused by R2. Per R1 reported they felt safe and loved living at the facility. R1 reported that they sustained a fall in their room which resulted in R1s black eye. R1 confirmed they were friends with R2 and reported no inappropriate contact between each other. Additionally, R2 also denied any inappropriate contact or sexual contact with R1. ED denied the allegations and provided the Unusual Incident Report (UIR) documenting R1’s unwitnessed fall in room and sustained a small laceration above left eyebrow. UIR indicated staff responded with first aid and R1 was later transported to the hospital for further evaluation. Interview with RP revealed that RP did not witness any physical or sexual assault between R1 and R2. Other random residents interviewed did not report witnessing any inappropriate behavior by R2. Random residents interviewed reported feeling safe at the facility.
Based on the information obtained during the investigation, the Department does not have sufficient evidence to corroborate the allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the above allegation, “Due to lack of supervision resident sexually abused another resident in care.” And “Due to lack of supervision resident physically assaulted another resident in care” are deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.
