Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Cynthia Chan conducted an initial complaint investigation on the above allegation. LPA met with licensee, Johnette Bellosillo and explained the purpose of the visit today.

During today's visit, LPA obtained a copy of the staff roster and client roster. LPA reviewed Client #1's (C-1) file and obtained relevant documents. Interviews were conducted with the licensee, Staff #1 – Staff #3 (S-1 through S-3), and Client #1 (C-1). The other 2 clients were not home for interview.

Allegation: Facility withholds client’s P&I funds. During this visit today, LPA reviewed C-1's file and conducted interviews with the licensee, 3 Staff, and C-1. The licensee stated that C-1 did not ask for money until recently when they started going on outings at the day program. Licensee denied withholding any clients’ P&I funds. She stated the staff documents all the purchases and money given to clients. LPA reviewed the P & I ledgers from the time C-1 moved in until current.

The spending and amount given were all documented and signed by C-1. According to Staff, C-1 does not ask for cash but only to purchase items. When C-1 does asks, staff stated that they would contact the owner and the owner will always allow it. LPA interviewed C-1 and client stated that the owner has recently been giving the P&I fund when requested. Based on file review and interviews, there is insufficient evidence to support this allegation.

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.

An exit interview was conducted. A copy of this report and appeal rights were provided to licensee.
