25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jessica Cho continued the visit after observing a deficiency while conducting a complaint investigation in connection to Complaint Control Number: 22-AS-20230919083629.
At 12:32pm upon arrival, LPA contacted Administrator (Admin) Darlene Lindley by telephone (who was not present at the time) and stated the purpose of the visit. LPA was greeted by Resident Care Director (RCD) Karla Lara Ramirez who assisted LPA during the visit.
On today's date, LPA met with Staff #1 (S1) at 12:37pm and verified that S1 was not listed on the Department's Licensing Information System (LIS) Facility Personnel Report Summary and the Guardian Employee Roster. S1 confirmed that today was their first day and acknowledged not completed the background check clearance. S1 also confirmed that they met with the residents today. Facility is not in compliance as per Title 22 Regulation 87355 Criminal Record Clearance, all individuals subject to a criminal record review shall prior to working, residing, or volunteering at a licensed facility obtain a California clearance and request a transfer of a criminal record clearance, therefore the preponderance of evidence standard has been met for S1.
A deficiency is being cited as per Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8 of the California Code of Regulations. See the attached LIC809D. An immediate civil penalty is assessed. See the attached LIC421BG.
An exit interview was conducted with Resident Care Director Karla Lara Ramirez, and a copy of this report including the LIC809D, LIC421BG, LIC811, and the appeal rights were emailed to the resident care director at the end of the visit. |
