Two (2) out of five (5) clients were attempted to interview but unable to reach.

All staff denied the allegation. Staff interviews revealed C#1's room ceiling's dripping water was the water from the client on the 2nd floor. That client on the 2nd floor had a habit of overflowing bathtub water during shower. Staff had responded to C#1's dripping water issue by re-sealing the C1's ceiling and client's bathtub on the 2nd floor. File reviews revealed facility had taken immediate action to respond to the issue. LPA toured the facility and did not observe water dripping from clients' bedrooms during the visit.

Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

No deficiencies are being cited according to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8.

An exit interview was conducted with Meir Yiti Teichman, Administrator. A hard copy of this report was provided.
