Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Michelle Reed made an unannounced visit to the facility for the purpose of presenting the findings of the complaint investigation. Upon arrival, LPA met with Administrator Lana Hammers. The investigation consisted of interviews with Administrator and witnesses as well as documentation. The following was determined:

On 6/19/21, a Preadmission Appraisal was completed for R1 and R2. An Admission Agreement was signed on 6/24/21 with a move in date of 8/1/21. On 7/1/21 a 30 day notice was given by R1 and R2 that they would not be moving into the facility. Regulation states that a refund of at least 80 percent of the preadmission fee in excess of $500 shall be provided if the applicant does not enter the facility after a preadmission appraisal is conducted, or the resident leaves the facility for any reason during the first month of residency. On 8/19/21 Brookdale posted a refund of $839.35 that will be mailed within 2 days to R1 and R2. The admission agreement was also reviewed regarding the forged signature allegation. The document was signed using the computer system DocuSign by all parties. DocuSign is a valid signature.
