13 | On January 12, 2021, Community Care Licensing received information which stated staff left resident in soiled clothing for extended period of time. The investigation included interviews and review of documents. It was reported that R1 was left in soiled clothing. It was reported that when R1 was picked up to be transported to a doctor's appointment, R1's pants were soiled. It was reported that R1 was changed immediately. No other incidents of R1 being left in soiled clothing were advised. Information obtained from additional witnesses stated that R1's condition changed and it was advised that R1 would need to be placed in diapers to assist with changing requirements. Facility staff stated that R1 was not left in soiled clothing and that R1 was changed every 1-2 hours due to R1's condition. Documentation was provided to support the change in the level of care.
Based on interviews and the review of pertinent documentation, the above allegation may have occurred, however is not supported or proved by evidence. Therefore, the allegation is unsubstantiated at this time. The preponderance of evidence standard has not been met.
