LPA met with staff member Eduardo Eleazar and explained the reason for the visit. The investigation into the allegation, Client has medications in their possession, revealed the following. LPA interviewed the Administrator Cora Kon via cellphone during the visit. It was reported that the client had syringes preloaded with steroids in their possession. A review of records shows that the client (C1) is not prescribed any steroids or any medication that is administered with a syringe. Facility staff and the Administrator reported that after C1's hospital visit, C1 has been counseled about obtaining medication that is not prescribed by his primary care physician (PCP) and how it is not allowed at the facility. C1 is allowed to leave the facility to go to school, work and the gym. C1 is not allowed to administer their own medication. LPA observed all medications in the facility are kept locked in a kitchen cabinet. C1 reported that they do not have any syringes with steroids or any medication in their possession. C1 did report that at the time of their hospital visit they did have syringes with steroids but the hospital kept them.
