25 | Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Brian Balisi and Zabel Chochian conducted an unannounced Case Management - Deficiencies visit in conjunction with a complaint visit (Complaint control # 29-AS-20230411112334). LPAs met with Sarkis Dovlatyan. The purpose of this visit is to issue citations for deficiencies observed during the complaint investigation which were not related to the complaint.
During the complaint investigation, interviews conducted reflected that all matters related to the operation of the facility such as payment for services, hospice care, and any matters related to the well-being of the residents are communicated with an individual named Anna Hakobyan. Interview with Administrator revealed that they have been business partners for approximately 10 years, but Administrator indicated they receive payments from all residents and denied any knowledge of any residents paying or being in contact with Anna. Administrator continued to state families may be in contact with Anna for hospice or home health services. LPAs discussed with administrator that Anna Hakobyan was excluded by the Department and should not have any involvement with the day-to-day operations of the facility. A copy of the accusation was also provided to the administrator during today’s visit.
In addition, during today’s visit, LPAs conducted a physical plant tour at approximately 9:45am and observed five (5) out of five (5) residents with full bed rails. Resident records review at approximately 1pm – 2pm, revealed that the facility does not maintain accurate resident records. Administrator and LPA reviewed five (5) resident hospice records and did not find any order for the full rails. Five (5) out of five (5) resident records reviewed did not have a centrally stored medication record, complete resident appraisal, preplacement, needs and services plan, and complete hospice records. No staff records on site to review. During the visit Administrator revealed to LPAs their Administrators certificate is expired.
