25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kimberly Viarella made an unannounced case management visit to this facility on 08/05/24 to amend a section of the LIC 809 D page regarding the evidence described in the report for type A deficiency cited on 08/02/24. The LPA identified herself upon arrival, stated the purpose of the visit, and asked to speak with the Designated Facility Administrator/Executive Director, Josef Dunham. A brief interview followed.
On 07/24/24, R2 stabbed R1 in the face with a fork during dinner. Staff, (S1) observed the incident and separated the two residents. S1 left R1 at the table and moved R2 across the room to another table. When S1 returned to check on R1, S1 asked if R1 was okay and R1 replied, "Why wouldn't I be?" S1 explained that they had just been stabbed in the face with a fork. According to S1, R1 replied, "I don't remember that." S1 notified the MedTechs and the Resident Services Coordinator. LPA met with R1 during today's visit and there were no visible marks on R1's face at the present time.
LPA learned through interviews that the MedTech on duty (S2) completed an incident report for R2 and contacted R2's responsible party and primary care physician. S2 should have also completed an incident report for R1 and notified their responsible party and primary care physician as well. However, according to the California Code of regulations Reporting Requirements, 87211(a)(1)(D) "(a) Each licensee shall furnish to the licensing agency such reports as the Department may require, including, but not limited to, the following: (1) A written report shall be submitted to the licensing agency and to the person responsible for the resident within seven days of the occurrence of any of the events specified in... (D) below. This report shall include the resident's name, age, sex and date of admission; date and nature of event; attending physician's name, findings, and treatment, if any; and disposition of the case. (D) Any incident which threatens the welfare, safety or health of any resident, such as psychological abuse of a resident by staff or other residents, or unexplained absence of any resident."
The incident report for R1 was completed on 07/25/24 by S2 as requested by the Resident Care |
