25 | Licensing Program Analyst, Melissa Spaeth, conducted an unannounced complaint visit regarding Complaint #31-AS-20240214144751 and Complaint #31-AS-20240214113238. LPA Spaeth was greeted by the caregiver who called the Administrator, Gayane Alaberkyan who stated they were unavailable.
LPA requested to see the resident files. The Administrator stated the files were locked in the Administrator's office and the Administrator could not come to the facility to unlock the office.
LPA and the caregiver toured the facility at 1:00 until 1:15 pm. At 1:00 pm, LPA observed a needle sitting on the kitchen table. LPA explained the needle should not be sitting out in the open and the caregiver disposed of the needle. The caregiver opened the medication cabinet and stated the lock was broken. LPA observed the medications were not properly locked in the cabinet.
Based upon Title 22 Regulations, the following deficiencies are substantiated. (See 809-D page).
Exit interview conducted, appeal rights discussed, and a copy of the signed report was given.
