Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Galarza generated this Case Management - Deficiencies report in conjunction with complaint control #28-AS-20231120121606 pertaining to observations made during the physical plant inspection of the Memory Care Unit. The purpose of the report was explained to Memory Care Director Rodora Merana.

All resident bedrooms in the Memory Care Unit have surveillance cameras installed in a wall corner of each room. The cameras have wiring that connects to electrical outlets.

LPA spoke with Rodora Merana and she stated that the cameras were donated, but it was determined to be non-compliant with Title 22 regulations. However, maintenance staff have not removed the cameras from the resident rooms. No Exception Waiver has been submitted to the department. Per Title 22, residents shall be afforded privacy.

Based on observation, a citation is being issued. See LIC 809D.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of the report and appeal rights were issued.
