25 | This unannounced Case Management – Incident inspection is being conducted by Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Sean Haddad for the purpose of a health and safety check and to follow up on self-reported incident reports received in the Orange County Regional Office (OCRO) on 09/22/23 and 09/29/23 regarding Client #1 (C1). LPA met with Staff #1 (S1) Kenya Huff and discussed the purpose of the inspection. Administrator (AD) Frances Snoddy appeared via telephone.
The incident reports state the following: On 09/21/23, C1 left the facility, staff followed and attempted to redirect C1 but lost sight of C1, and the Anaheim Police Department was notified. On 09/28/23, C1 returned to the facility with minor injuries.
During today’s inspection, LPA conducted health and safety checks on C1 and the other clients and observed no health and safety issues. LPA observed the facility to be clean and organized and found no health and safety issues. LPA observed the facility has a 2-day supply of perishables and a 7-day supply of non-perishable food, the electricity and water were running, the facility had soap and paper towels, and the medications and sharps were property stored. LPA confirmed placement and functionality of door alarms. LPA interviewed S1, C1, and requested and reviewed copies of the resident roster, staff roster, and C1’s Client File.
The investigation into the incident revealed the following. C1 left the facility, was missing, sustained minor injuries, and was found and returned. However, C1’s Physician’s Report dated 05/09/23 does not indicate C1 is able to leave the facility unassisted. In addition, C1’s Individual Program Plan dated 03/24/22 indicates that “when [C1] becomes upset, [C1] impulsively makes high risk decisions that have frequently placed [C1] at crisis facilities and the ER. It is important to intervene when [C1] has eloped and attempted to de-escalate.” Review of C1’s Physician’s Report dated 05/09/23 reveal that multiple portions have not been completed, including ambulatory status and whether C1 can leave the facility unassisted.
Based on the information obtained during today’s inspection, deficiencies are being cited per Title 22 Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations. See LIC809D. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report and appeal rights was discussed with and provided to facility representative. |
