32 | Allegation #2: Staff member yelled at resident.
The complaint alleged that while staff entered R1’s room with a broom, they began yelling at R1. On May 20, 2026, the department interviewed the Administrator (A1), who denied the allegation and stated that construction workers were fixing the utilities outside R1’s room. R1 accused them of yelling because R1 didn’t like the worker working outside R1's room. They never touched or yelled at R1. On the same day, the department interviewed four staff members (S1-S4), all of whom denied the allegation and stated that they would never yell at a resident. S4 stated that some residents are stubborn and refuse to follow orders, so they had to repeat instructions more than once, but never in a yelling manner. At the same time, the department interviewed eight residents (R2-R9), who denied that staff ever yelled at them. Some stated they noticed residents being aggressive and cursing staff members. The department was unable to interview R1 because R1 passed away at Riverside Community Hospital on December 16, 2025. On May 20, 2026, the department’s review of the facility rosters, and the Licensing Information System (LIS) showed no staff member by the name of the suspected abuser that was provided.
Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation (s) did or did not occur, therefore, the allegation is Unsubstantiated.
No deficiencies were cited.
An exit interview was conducted. A copy of this report was provided to the Administrator. Shalabi Jamal.
