(Continued from LIC9099) At approximately 10:21 a.m., LPA Rios conducted a physical plant tour of the facility. During the tour, LPA observed that R1 was not in the facility, Resident #2 (R2) and Resident #3 (R3) were asleep. No health or safety issues were observed at this time. Prior to today’s visit, LPA Rios conducted telephone interviews with R1’s responsible person and R1’s assigned Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), who is assisting with R1’s placement.

Allegation: Unlawful eviction. It was alleged that the facility would not be accepting R1 after hospital discharge. To investigate this allegation, LPA conducted an interview with the Licensee and was informed that they had spoken to R1's LCSW sometime last week regarding R1's discharge and return to the facility. The Licensee confirmed they informed R1's LCSW that upon discharge they would not be admitting R1 due to R1's "unstageable" wounds and that she could not admit R1 because they were not allowed to take care of someone with "unstageable" wounds per Community Care Licensing (CCL). LPA's review of R1's Home Health services for wound care confirmed R1 had been receiving care for a wounds since 05/22/25 after being admitted to the facility on 04/12/25. On 08/11/25, an unannounced Case Management – Deficiencies visit was conducted. During the visit, the facility was cited for retaining R1, who had a prohibited health condition. As part of the plan of correction, the Licensee submitted an exception request to retain R1 at the facility. Licensee had not received a approval or denial from CCL. Upon LPA’s request, the Licensee could not provide R1's re appraisal regarding changes in the level of care. Additionally, the investigation revealed the Licensee did not serve R1 or their responsible person a written 30-day Eviction notice.

On 09/17/25, a telephonic interview with R1's responsible person revealed that they had anticipated R1 going back, and had conversations with the licensee about making their monthly payment on 09/14/25 however, on the 09/16/25, R1's LCSW informed R1's reasonable person that the Licensee stated R1 requires a higher level of care. No re-appraisal and no conversation with R1's responsible person was done by the facility's Licensee to inform that the facility can no longer meet R1's needs. On 09/17/25, a telephonic interview with R1's, LCSW revealed they had made contact with the licensee to arrange R1's return when the Licensee informed them they would not be taking R1 back due to R1's Stage 3 wound and Licensing. Licensee also asked the LCSW to help with placement. Based on interviews and record review this allegation is Substantiated at this time.

(Continued from LIC9099-C) Allegation: Facility staff did not seek medical attention in a timely manner. It was alleged that the Licensee informed R1's family that R1 may have had a "stroke" but did not call 911 until the next day. To investigate this allegation, LPA conducted an interview with the Licensee and was informed that around noon of 09/12/25 R1's family member in the presence of R1's Home Health nurse asked the Licensee why R1 was "screaming" and complaining of pain when they attempted to stretch out R1's left arm which was bent at the elbow.

According to the Licensee and a review of text messages, the following is a representation of the events that occurred: On 09/12/25, the Licensee informed R1’s family member that they believed the contractions in R1’s arm and leg could be due to a “mini stroke.” According to the Licensee, R1’s family member appeared anxious and contacted R1’s responsible person. R1’s responsible person then reached out to the Licensee same day via telephone, sending a text message at 6:05 p.m., followed by a voicemail at 6:21 p.m., requesting that the Licensee call 911 if they believed R1 was experiencing a stroke. At approximately 8:27 p.m., the Licensee followed up with R1’s responsible person to clarify that they suspected R1 may have had a “mini stroke” that had gone unnoticed. When asked by the LPA why they believed R1 had experienced a "mini stroke", the Licensee explained that they had observed contractions in R1’s leg and now arm and asked their friend in the neurology field, who suggested there are different reasons but according to the Licensee their friend said based on the resident's age an symptoms it could indicate a stroke. The Licensee stated that they chose not to immediately call 911 because they wanted to monitor R1 and contact R1’s Home Health provider. However, since the provider was closed at that time, they waited until the next morning. On 09/13/25, at approximately 8:00 a.m., the Licensee contacted Home Health, who advised that if the Licensee believed R1 had suffered a stroke, they should call 911. Licensee admitted that they did not call 911 immediately after Home Health because they were gathering R1’s documentation to provide to the EMT. 911/Paramedics arrived to the facility at approximately 11:00 a.m.

On 09/17/25, LPA Rios confirmed with R1’s Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and later on 09/22/25 with R1’s responsible person, that R1 did not experience a stroke. However, the Licensee believed R1 had symptoms consistent with a stroke and still delayed seeking medical attention. Based on the information obtained this allegation is deemed Substantiated at this time.
