Licensing Program Analyst Michelle Reed arrived at the facility to discuss the complaint allegations. Upon arrival, LPA met with Carmen Nicholas. Staff Nielgar Buton and Ransy Laxamana were also present. Administrator Virgilio De Guzman arrived a short time later.
Resident's were interviewed and files were reviewed. The Licensee's Admission Agreement(House Rules) states that drugs or any illegal substances are prohibited. R1 has a prescription for medical marijuana. R1 wants to store the marijuana in R1's room, however, R1's cannot store his/her own medications. Mr. DeGuzman will followup with R1's Physician. Physician reports of residents' were reveiwed. 6 of 6 reports disclosed that the resident could not leave the facility unassisted. Licensee Virgilio De Guzman is reminded that he and staff must assist/supervise residents who wish to leave the facility.
Based upon interviews and a review of records, the allegations above are unsubstantiated, meaning that although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was given to Virgilio DeGuzman.
