13 | Licensing Program Analyst Leibert arrives unannounced for the purpose of delivering findings on this complaint. It has been alleged that facility staff made arrangements for Resident (R1) to assist another Resident(R2) by remaining in R2's room at night to remind R2 to call for assistance when needed. Through statements and document reviews, the following determinations are made: R1, R2, the Administrator and Nurse Consultant state that R1 volunteered to assist R2, who is a close friend, and that the facility staff have not requested or required R1 to provide any care or assistance to R2; There is no record indicating that the Physician for R2 has ordered night time supervision of R2 in excess of what is normally provided by staff for all residents in care. R1 and R2 state that the presence of R1 in R2's room at night is an informal arrangement which developed out of a friendship, was purely voluntary, and promulgated between themselves. Although the allegation may be true, based on statements and document reviews, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove or disprove the allegation. Therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. Report left.
