Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Abeye Duguma and Gary Tan conducted an unannounced subsequent complaint visit to obtain additional information for the above noted allegations. LPA met with Johnny Ortiz, Executive Director (ED) and discussed the reason for the visit.

---Staff locked residents in their rooms.

It was reported that the resident is being locked in the room. To investigate these allegations, on 03/11/2022 at 2:00pm LPAs conducted a physical plant tour. During the tour, LPAs selected random rooms to inspect and discovered that the rooms may only be locked from the inside. LPAs' interview facility staff between 12:30pm-2:30pm revealed that no one locked any resident inside their rooms at any time. Based on the information gathered during this and prior investigations, the allegation is unsubstantiated at this time.

--- Residents door is in disrepair

It was reported that the resident's door is in disrepair. To investigate these allegations, on 03/11/2022, between 12:30pm - 2:30pm LPAs conducted interviews and requested pertinent documents. The interviews with facility staff revealed that the resident would often aggressively handle the door, motioning the door handle up and down beyond its intended design limitations and it eventually broke. The pertinent documents reviewed by the LPAs and interviews with facility staff also revealed that a work order was place for repairs on 03/08/2021 at 12:43pm and the door was repaired the following day. Based on the information gather, during this and prior investigations, the allegation is unsubstantiated at this time.
