This unannounced visit conducted by Amy Goldenberg, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), is being conducted to conclude this agency’s investigation into the complaint allegations mentioned above.

During the course of the investigation, interviews were conducted with staff, a review of resident records (R1) was completed, and copies of pertinent documents were obtained. Through review of the record and interviews LPA learned the following: In regard to the allegation of facility not assisting resident with medication, review of resident admission agreement reveals that R1 moved in to Arlington Riverside Senior Community on 08/21/2020. Interviews of staff and resident indicated that R1 did not receive medication from admission through November 2020. According to interview of the facility administrator on 09/23/2020 R1's medications were stored in the medication room and not dispensed without a physician order. A review of R1's record revealed that there were no medication orders on file for September and October 2020 supporting what interviews revealed.
