Report / LIC 624.

The investigation revealed the following:

Allegation: Staff failed to prevent resident from AWOL’ing from facility.
Based on interviews conducted and record reviews, LPA learned that on 1/1/22, at approximately 8am, R1 eloped from the facility in her wheelchair. According to the Ring doorbell footage of the front door, R1 was last observed smoking outside (near the main entrance door), as she sat in her wheelchair. At the time of the incident, there were 2 caregivers and 1 med tech working at the facility and all were busy assisting residents and did not observe R1 leaving the facility. From the interviews conducted, LPA learned that on the weekends, the front desk staff does not begin their work shift until 9am and there is no staff monitoring the front desk area and resident traffic going in and out of the facility between the hours of 6:30am and 9am. Although the facility is equipped with a surveillance system, the facility needs to have staff supervision in the early hours to ensure residents are not leaving the facility without informing staff and/or without assistance. Per R1's Physician's Report, R1 is not able to leave the facility unassisted. This poses an immediate health and safety risk to R1. All reporting parties were notified of the incident, including the Pasadena Police Department.

Based on LPA’s observations and interviews which were conducted and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be Substantiated. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division & Chapter number), are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to the Assistant Administrator along with the Appeals Rights.
