Witnesses reported that on 06/05/20 Resident #1 (R1) was observed isolated and neglected with their pants down to their ankles, blouse unbuttoned, and that R1 was soiled. LPA Martinez interviewed Witness #1 (W1) who stated that on 06/05/20 they observed R1 laying in bed with their blouse unbuttoned, no bra, pants at their ankles, and diaper half open. Per W1, R1 stated that a facility staff had been helping them but left and had been gone for a “long long time.” W1 then activated R1’s signal system, but after 20 minutes no facility staff had arrived so W1 went to go look for a facility staff for help. Per W1, the facility staff who had been helping R1 was eventually found, stated they had left to find wipes to finish cleaning R1, and was apologetic about forgetting about R1. However, the facility staff had only managed to find small baby wipes and could not find proper wipes. Per W1, the facility did not have wipes available despite wipes having been recently delivered to the facility for use by W1 and R1. LPAs attempted to interview the facility staff identified by W1, but LPAs’ calls were not returned. On 06/09/20 W1 observed R1 soiled again, noted R1 had a “very bad rash” because R1 is not changed when needed, and observed there were no wipes available. LPA Haddad interviewed AD who corroborated that R1 should have had their own incontinence supplies, but was unable to provide any additional information regarding this allegation. LPA Haddad’s interview with Witness #2 (W2) corroborated this allegation. On multiple occasions, W2 observed that R1 was left in soiled diapers for extended periods of time and that there were no staff anywhere to be found to assist or supervise R1 when R1 would return from outings. R1’s Supportive Hospice Care Medical Records dated from 05/01/20 to 06/24/20 (pages 173, 124, 136) state that on 05/02/20, 05/27/20, and 06/24/20, hospice staff observed R1 with a soiled diaper (on one occasion the diaper appeared to be at least 12 hours old) and observed caregivers improperly cleaning R1. This allegation is also corroborated by LPA observations. On 05/12/20, LPAs August and Martinez observed there was only 1 caregiver working in assisted living and interviewed multiple residents who stated the facility needs more staff because residents are left in the dining room a long time after meals before being taken back to their rooms and the 1 caregiver takes a long time to answer calls on the signal system.

During the course of the investigation, the Department obtained sufficient evidence to substantiate the allegation mentioned above. The preponderance of evidence standard has been met; therefore, the above allegations are Substantiated. See LIC9099D for cited deficiencies per Title 22 Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report and appeal rights was discussed with and provided to facility representative.
