INVESTIGATION REVEALED THE FOLLOWING:

Allegation: Facility has bed bugs.

The complaint details allege that the facility has a bed bug infestation. Reports indicate that on August 16, 2023, Resident #1 (R1) developed rashes and swelling due to bed bug bites, which resulted in hospitalization. The management of Hayworth Terrace was informed of the situation via text message but did not take any action. No additional information regarding this matter was provided.

On May 22, 2025, between 09:30 AM and 11:00 AM, the Department interviewed resident members identified as Resident #1 and Resident #2 (R1-R2). Two (2) of the two (2) resident members who were present in 2023 could not validate this allegation. (R1) stated they had not experienced any bed bugs in (R1’s) private room. (R2) said to have not seen any bed bugs or pests in (R2’s) room. (R1-R2) also denied seeing any pests in the facility's common areas.

On May 22, 2025, between 09:30 AM and 12:00 PM, the Department interviewed staff members identified as Staff #1 through Staff #4 (S1-S4). Four (4) out of the four (4) could not corroborate this allegation. (S1) stated (R1), when first admitted, was in room #48 and later moved to room #87. (S1) said there was no evidence of bed bugs and no service request for pest treatments for both rooms. (S1) mentioned the facility had a contract with Pest Point Solutions, who came to the facility and did spray treatment regularly in 2023. (S2) stated that one of the primary care staff members for (R1) did not see any presence of bed bugs in (R1)’s room and did not observe any indication of skin problems. (S3-S4) could not validate this claim as both were hired after 2024 and were not presently working at the facility.

After reviewing the Physician's Report LIC 602A for (R1) (dated 01/25/23 and 07/22/24) and the Department Health Care Services (DHCS) Individual Service Plan (dated 01/31/22) revealed that (R1) had no history of skin condition or breakdown. A review of (R1) 's Medication Administration Record (MAR) (dated 08/01/23 through 08/31/23) indicated (R1) is taking (2) prescribed medications that can cause skin ulceration (ref: National Institute of Health NIH). Further review of invoices and contracts from Pest Point Solutions indicated that regular pest control treatment services were being performed regularly in 2023. No hospital records from Cedar Sinai are included in the file for (R1).
