Licensing Program analyst Leibert met with Licensee Jean Felix, this date for the purpose of delivering findings on the above captioned complaint allegation. The visit was conducted via tele-visit due to the COVID - 19 precautions. Resident (R1) has been on Hospice care since approximately February of 2020. At some point, R1 developed a bed sore that worsened over time and eventually was determined to be stage three. Records and interviews confirm that facility staff reported the progression of the sore to the Hospice nurses who notified the doctor. Records indicate that R1 was provided appropriate care for the wound and that the condition has been addressed in the Hospice Care Plan. R1's condition is permitted under "Exceptions for Health Conditions" Title Twenty-Two, 87616. Based upon the documents reviewed and the statements taken, the allegation is found to be UNFOUNDED, meaning that the allegation is false, did not happen, and/or is without a reasonable basis. Therefore the allegation is DISMISSED.
Unfounded

Licensing Program analyst Leibert met with Licensee Jean Felix, this date for the purpose of delivering findings on the above captioned complaint allegation. The visit was conducted via tele-visit due to the COVID - 19 precautions. It has been alleged that resident R1 has not been turned regularly in bed and that, after R1's replacement in another facility, the refund from the facility was not the correct amount. During the course of this investigation this Department has taken statements and reviewed documents. The following determinations have been made: Facility records indicate R1 was turned every two hours and staff concur; Hospice nurses who visited the facility did not express concern with R1's care; R1 did develop a stage three pressure injury while at the facility; there are differing opinions regarding the amount of refund due; R1's Responsible Person claims that RP was not allowed into the facility to timely remove R1's belongings; Administrator claims that the refund is appropriate because RP chose not to remove R1's belongings for 3 days which lowered the refund amount due. Based upon the documents reviewed and statements taken, the allegations may be true, or valid, but there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did, or did not, occur. Therefore, the complaint is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
Unsubstantiated

Licensing Program analyst Leibert met with Licensee Jean Felix, this date for the purpose of delivering findings on the above captioned complaint allegation. The visit was conducted via tele-visit due to the COVID - 19 precautions. It is alleged that when R1's condition changed due to the progression of the pressure injury that facility staff did not notify the Responsible Party. When questioned by this Department's staff, both the Hospice nurse and facility Administrator stated that the RP was not notified of the R1's change in condition until a care conference in November 2020 which was several months after the condition changed. Based upon the documents reviewed and statements made, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. Therefore, the allegation is SUBSTANTIATED.

The following deficiencies were observed (see LIC 9099D) and cited from the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6 of California Regulation. Failure to correct the deficiency and/or repeat deficiencies within a 12 month period may result in civil penalties. Exit interview conducted and appeal of rights provided.
