Regarding the allegation: Facility has rodents
On 7/2/20 LPA interviewed the administrator and the assistant over the telephone regarding the above allegation, Administrators stated they did not see, nor any residents complained to them of seeing rodents in the facility. They stated the company pest control Western Exterminators comes twice a month and conducts preventive measure. LPA asked the administrator if residents go to the basement? He stated they would not have a need to go down there and only staff is permitted. He also stated residents do not eat in their rooms in the but are in the dining room area at stager times. LPA asked administrator, how often does housekeeping clean? He stated housekeeping cleans the facility every day and deep cleans twice daily. LPA Interviewed Staff members S1-S3 over the telephone, all staff members indicated they have not seen any rodents at the facility nor have any residents complained to them about rodents. LPA asked staff how often does pest control come to the facility? Staff stated they see pest control at least twice a month. Staff also stated housekeeping cleans daily and deep cleans.
On 7/10/20 LPA interviewed residents over the telephone regarding the above allegation, LPA tried to interviewed resident #R1 but she refused to talk to me. Residents #’s R2-R3 stated they had seen a dead rat on two separate occasion. Residents stated had saw one on the patio and another inside the facility but could not recall the dates. Residents #’s R4-R7 stated have not seen any rodents nor had anyone complained to them. LPA asked residents, if they go down to the basement? Residents stated they do not have a need to go into the basement.
Based on interviews and documentation during the investigation 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 allegation is unsubstantiated or unfounded
A telephonic exit interview was conducted with Administrator, and hard copy was provided via email for records
