The investigation findings revealed that R1 had been living at this facility, in a Memory Care Unit, for approximately six (6) months and required an assistance with showers. Interview with R1’s family revealed that prior to the fall, which occurred on 05/31/22, R1 was able to ambulate without a walker and or wheelchair. Interviews with six (6) out of six (6) staff members revealed that on a day of an incident S1 was assigned to watch R1 and other residents in a movie theater. Interviews also revealed that an assigned Staff #1 (S1) took a break before they were relieved by another staff member and between five (5) to eight (8) Memory Care Unit residents were left in the movie theater unsupervised which led R1 to fall and sustain serious bodily injury. Moreover, during the interviews conducted by the Investigator, (S1) admitted leaving for a break before another staff member could replace them and take over the supervising duties. Lastly, review of R1’s Medical Records revealed that R1 was admitted to ER on 05/31/22 and was diagnosed with Right Femur Intertrochanteric FX (fractured/broken hip) that resulted in a surgery.

Based on interviews and document review, during the course of the investigation, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the above allegation is Substantiated.

A $500 immediate civil penalty is assessed today for a violation resulting in injury to R1. The licensee/administrator was informed that additional civil penalties might be assessed based on Health and Safety Code 1569.49(e) or (f), or 1548(e) or (f), 1568.0822(e) or (f).

Exit interview conducted.

Civil penalties assessed and appeal rights explained.

Report reviewed, signed and delivered.
