25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Christina Valerio arrived to the facility unannounced to conduct a case management visit. LPA met with facility staff, and explained the purpose of the visit. LPA learned Anastasia was out of the building conducting off site training for the corporation.
LPA received a summary of Department of Developmental Services’ (DDS) semiannual review that was conducted on site at Telecare Herald House CCH on May 3, 2023 and remotely on May 18, 2023. DDS recommended Telecare Herald House:
• rectify all outstanding items noted for follow-up within the timelines established by ACRC.
• follow the program plan, including the administrator making “random night shift visits to provide support and oversight.”
• provide additional staff training on the criteria for implementation of restraint procedures, which are to be implemented as a last resort.
• ensure ACRC QBMP documentation is included in each consumer file.
Consistent with recommendations from April 2021, November 2021, May 2022 and November 2022 semi-annual reviews, DDS recommended Telecare Herald House:
• ensure weekly review of the IBSP is conducted, and includes review of current data, including data on replacement behavior goals.
• ensure debriefings are documented in accordance with regulatory requirements (22 CCR § 85168.3(a)
• ensure that full-time administrator hours are completed in accordance with the approved program plan.
