It was alleged that on 07/13/25. Resident #1 (R1’s) family member arrived to visit R1 and staff informed him that R1’s POA does not allow the family member to visit R1. R1 is competent and is able to make their own decisions.

Staff revealed that R1 was competent enough to let their needs be known. Staff verified that on 07/13/2025 there was a phone argument between R1’s family members. One of the siblings (R1’s POA) did not allow another sibling to visit R1. The staff followed POA's request documented in the facility records and did not allow R1’s family member to see R1. Staff admitted not informing R1 about a family member visiting the facility.

A review of facility records verified that R1 was able to make their own decision to accept or deny visitation.
Based on interviews and records review, there is sufficient information to support the allegation. Therefore, the allegation is substantiated at this time.

Note: LPA Comer spoke with ED and informed them that POA does not extend to residents’ personal rights and Resident should be able to have visitation with a family member at their own will.

Under Title 22 Division 6, Chapter 7, the following citation was issue and recorded on LIC9099D.

Exit interview was conducted, appeal rights were discussed and a copy of report was issued.
