32 | Allegation: #1: Staff do not safeguard resident’s personal belongings.
The complaint alleged that the Power of Attorney (POA) and another individual took the resident’s ID and bank cards under the pretense of preventing theft. On July 28, 2026, the Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Richard interviewed the Administrator (A1), who denied the allegations. A1 stated that when the resident was admitted to the facility, no bank cards were recorded as personal belongings.
During the same investigation, the department interviewed three staff members (S1-S3), all of whom also denied the allegations, claiming they were unaware of any resident's bank cards. Additionally, the LPA spoke with five residents (R2-R6); three out of 5 expressed that they enjoyed living at the facility.
The LPA interviewed the Power of Attorney (POA), who denied the allegations and stated that the resident (R1) has access to R1's bank card. The LPA also reviewed records of the resident's personal property and valuables dated July 3, 2026, at the time of R1's admission to the facility. The records did not list any bank cards. On July 23, 2026, during R1's move-out, personal property and valuables were taken; no bank card was listed. The LPA also reviewed the facility's unusual incident report to the Community Care Licensing Department regarding R1's move-out with a family member. However, on July 28, 2026, the LPA was unable to interview resident R1 because R1 had moved out of the facility on July 23, 2026, and their current whereabouts are unknown.
Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur; therefore, the allegation is unsubstantiated.
