Allegation: Licensee does not ensure that resident's dietary needs are met. It is alleged that Resident#1 (R1) is missing meals and appears to be extremely hungry and thirsty. During interviews with R1 on 05/07/2025 and 08/11/2025, the resident spoke generally about their experience at the facility but did not provide information regarding the allegation. LPA's interviews with R3 and R4 did not corroborate the allegation. LPA's interview with R4's family member on 08/20/2025, revealed they visit R4 often at different times and makes it a point to visit when breakfast is being served and again at a later time during the same day. According to R4's family member the meals are served on time, look good and R4 eats well. LPA's interview with two (2) staff and Josephine deny the allegation. LPA's Interview with three (3) representative from outside agencies providing care to residents in the facility did not corroborate the allegation. LPA interview with one (1) of R1’s family members, on 05/07/2025 and 08/11/2025 stated that R1 is eating the meals prepared by the facility. The family member reported that the food appears fine overall, but suggested that it be made softer for R1. LPA's interview with one other family member for R1 revealed R1 is hungry and thirsty every time they visit. Due to inconsistent and insufficient evidence LPA could not corroborate the allegation. Therefore, based on interviews and observations, this allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.
