32 | Regarding the allegation that staff are not meeting residents’ needs, the investigation revealed the following: Documents reviewed by LPA included the Personnel Report (LIC500) dated 01/01/24. Per Personnel Report on average there are two caregivers for the morning and evening shifts from Monday-Friday and one caregiver for the night and weekend shifts. During the initial visit on 01/26/24 and today's visit LPA observed two caregivers on duty for three clients in care. During the initial visit and today’s visit LPA observed as the caregivers checked on the clients at least every 15 minutes, offered them a snack and/or as they were doing exercise such as push-ups.
Regarding the allegation that staff do not have personal accommodations, the investigation revealed the following: During the course of the interviews with staff, S1 reported that staff have a private bedroom to watch television and take breaks. During the course of the interviews, AD stated that the caregivers have a private bedroom for personal accommodations. During the initial visit LPA observed a staff area which is used for staff breaks and for staff to relax.
Based on LPA's observation and information gathered during the investigation, LPA is unable to ascertain if the allegations occurred as reported due to conflicting information. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove or refute the alleged violations occurred; therefore, the allegations are deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED.
LPA Ramirez conducted an exit interview with AD Garcia, and a copy of this report was provided to the facility.
