25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Vincent Moleski arrived unannounced to conduct an annual inspection. LPA Moleski met with licensee Justice Ehimamiegho and explained the purpose of the visit.
LPA Moleski reviewed four resident files (R1-R4) and three staff files (S1-S3). LPA Moleski observed in R3's file three incident reports dating between 6/27/24 and 8/28/24 describing elopements by R3 wherein he was unsupervised in the community. An incident report dated 6/27/24 indicated that R3 was walking around in the backyard around 8 a.m., but when staff checked on him he had evidently left the property through a rear gate. Staff tried to find R3, but could not, so they called 911, according to the incident report. R3 was later found around 8:36 a.m. A second incident report dated 7/01/24 indicated that R3 left the facility through the front door around 9 a.m. and could not be redirected. Staff notified the licensee, who looked through the neighborhood, but could not find R3, according to the incident report. 911 was called, but at the time the incident report was written, R3 had not been found. LPA Moleski reviewed ongoing progress notes for R3 and observed a note dated 7/2/24 that indicated R3 was brought back to the facility by police on 7/2/24 around 7 a.m. LPA Moleski reviewed an after-visit summary from a hospital visit on 8/27/24, which showed R3 was diagnosed with acute psychosis. A third incident report dated 8/28/24 indicated that R3 became irritable and broke the facility television without apparent cause. Later in the day, around 4 p.m., R3 broke a bathroom window and left the facility through the window, according to the incident report. Staff called 911, but a neighbor notified staff that R3 was found in their backyard. R3 is diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment, and is non-ambulatory, according to R3's LIC 602, dated 11/15/23. R3 suffers from confusion and disorientation, and is not able to independently transfer, according to the LIC 602. R3 also has a history of seizures. LPA Moleski asked Ehimamiegho if he felt it is safe for R3 to be in the community independently. Ehimamiegho said that R3 would not be entirely safe, as R3 does require care, and R3 may also be unable to remember how to return to the facility if gone for too long. [continued on 809-C] |
