Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kimberly Lyman conducted an unannounced complaint visit to deliver findings on the above allegation. LPA was greeted and granted entry into the facility and explained the reason for the visit. Operations Specialist Lilit Mnatsakanyan arrived during the visit.
During the course of the investigation, LPA toured the facility and interviewed staff as well as reviewed and obtained pertinent documentation such as pendant call log. Regarding the allegation that staff did not respond to resident's call for assistance in a timely manner, the investigation revealed the following: Staff interviewed indicate kitchen staff do not have pagers therefore would be unable to hear any pendant calls or pages regarding resident calls or needs. During the investigation, LPA reviewed pendant call logs from 12/03/2021-12/10/2021. LPA observed 102 staff responses were between 23-44 minutes. Administrator indicated expected response time was under 15 minutes and staff interviewed confirmed the time frame. LPA tested 5 pendants and received a staff response in two of the occasions. Three of the test pulls had no staff response. The preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED.
