Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Stephanie Williams contacted the facility in order to deliver findings for the above allegation. LPA contacted the facility via telephone due to the COVID-19 pandemic. LPA identified herself and discussed the purpose of the call with Administrator, Shannon Hundley. The investigation consisted of interviews with staff/residents and records review.

LPA reviewed records of Staff #1's (S1's) file in which it was confirmed that S1 had worked at the facility from 09/2020 to 01/2021. LPA reviewed the Licensing Information System (LIS) which indicated that (S1) had background clearance and was associated to several other facilities; however, S1 was not listed on the personnel roster for Citrus Gardens as of 10/20/2020. LPA interviewed Staff #2 (S2) who stated that an LIC 9182, LIC 508, and a copy of S1's Identification Card was sent to the Department. LPA interviewed Staff #3 (S3) who stated that all Criminal Background Clearance Transfer Request documents were in S1's file but could not confirm if they were sent to the Department.
