Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Emily Peraldi and Rowena De Guzman, Community Services Specialist (QA) from North Los Angeles County Regional Center arrived to this location today for the purpose of conducting a Case Management – Deficiencies visit. At 1:50 p.m., LPA and QA were greeted and screened by staff. At 2:30 p.m., the Administrator arrived at the facility. Currently all of the clients are on vacation and will not be in the facility for eight (8) days.

During a previous visit on, 04/13/2022 at 9:38 a.m., LPA Peraldi arrived at the facility and knocked on the door. The facility appeared to be empty and no one answered the door. At 9:42 a.m., LPA Peraldi called the Administrator and the Administrator explained that a staff would be on the way to open the facility. Upon entry at 9:58 a.m., LPA Peraldi heard voices coming from room four (4). LPA Peraldi asked Staff #1 (S1) if all the client were at day program, S1 confirmed that all clients were at day program, except for Client #1 (C1). C1 recently had surgery and is in the process of recovering. During the day, C1 has a Personal Attendant (PA). The PA is not facility staff and is not associated to the facility. From 9:00 a.m. to the arrival of LPA Peraldi and S1 at 9:50 a.m., C1 was left alone at the facility with no staff, only the PA was present. During the time, C1 did not have the proper care and supervision as the PA is not facility staff.

On 04/15/2022 at 8:46 a.m., LPA Peraldi spoke with the Administrator and confirmed that C1 was left alone at the facility without care and supervision since the PA is not staff. The Administrator understood that C1 can not be left alone at the facility and stated that facility staff will remain at the facility whenever there are clients, including C1, present.
