13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kimberly Lyman conducted an unannounced complaint visit to deliver findings on the above allegation. LPA was greeted and granted entry into the facility and explained the reason for the visit.
During the course of the investigation, LPA toured the facility and interviewed staff and witnesses as well as reviewed and obtained pertinent documentation such as facility documentation. Regarding the allegation that facility did not safeguard resident property, the investigation revealed the following: Resident was admitted to facility under respite care 05/23/2022-06/01/2022. Per nursing admission evaluation dated 05/23/2022, the resident admitted with hearing aids and evaluation indicated that resident "can hear adequately with devices." Resident was transferred to the hospital and per witness, the hearing aids have not been returned back to responsible party to date. Facility staff is unaware of whereabouts of the hearing aids. Based on interviews conducted and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. Therefore the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8), are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to facility along with appeal rights. |
