Evidence reviewed and observations made from January 2020 through March 2020, revealed the allegation to be Substantiated.

The investigation into the allegation that staff did not shower resident revealed the following: On 3/23/2020, witness reported Resident 1 (R1) received a bath 3 times a week initially after moving to facility in 10/2018. Per witness, in 12/2019, facility went under new management and became BOK Senior Hotel, and everything changed. Interview with R1 who stated it took a week just to get a shower. Review of the facility’s bathing schedule for the months of February and March 2020, R1 was to receive 2 showers per week. Per Shower sign off logs, R1 received a shower on 02/21/2020, 3/3/2020, 03/16/2020, 03/19/2020, and 03/26/2020. These logs do not show R1 was offered 2 showers a week as scheduled.

Based on the evidence gathered through interviews and records reviewed, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore, the above allegation is found to be Substantiated.

Violations are being cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report along with citations and Appeal Rights (LIC 9058 01/16) and LIC811 Confidential Names was provided to the facility representative. Civil penalties are being assessed.
