13 | LPA Spaeth conducted an unannounced visit and was greeted by Administrator. LPA stated the purpose of the visit was to investigate a complaint which states staff ran resident into a doorway causing injury, staff did not provide medical attention to resident, and staff was rough with resident. LPA confirmed the complaint was submitted during 2020 which was the time the facility was Antelope Valley Retirement Villa.
LPA interviewed two staff members at 12:10 pm until 12:45 pm. The two staff members stated Complainant's friend (R2) obtained a skinned hand when a caregiver was wheeling the R2 out of room. Both staff members stated the incident was an accident and staff member apologized for incident. Both staff members also stated the wound was small and staff immediately treated the wound. Also staff members stated the wound did heal.
LPA obtained a copy of R2's death report which did not state the resident was septic when died. Therefore, the three allegations are unsubstantiated.
Exit interview conducted, appeal rights discussed, and a copy of the report was given to the Administrator. |
