13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jessica Cho arrived unannounced and met with Administrator (Admin) Maria Dolores who arrived at 10:25am for the purpose of delivering the findings into the above allegation. LPA explained the reason for the visit and reviewed the allegation with the Administrator.
On November 7, 2023, LPA initiated the 10-day complaint investigation and interviewed staff. LPA did not obtain copies of Resident #1 (R1) records as the original records were released to R1's hospital. A subsequent visit was made on November 28, 2023, and additional interviews were attempted. The following was revealed during the course of the investigation:
It is alleged that the staff abandoned the resident. Per interviews conducted with three out of the three staff, R1 is independent, alert, and oriented. R1 left the facility on October 31, 2023, for a doctor’s appointment. Three out of the three staff stated during the interviews that R1 had expressed an interest in leaving the facility due to allegedly having parasites in their body. |
