32 | LPA McCrory viewed the first room which was occupied by Resident identified as R1. R1 allowed Admin to enter without objection. During the video chat LPA viewed medication bottles on the counter, boxes stacked in the room, and overall clutter. After leaving the room Admin stated that R1 has reoccurring orders from the Home Shopping Network (HSN) and the overflow of boxes are taking over a vacant extra room. Admin states Power of Attorney (POA) is noticing some of the behaviors.
Admin went to the second room where Residents identified as R2 and R3 reside. LPA witnessed the room was cluttered. There was not a substantial amount of space for Admin to enter. R3 stated the son was coming up to tighten up the room. However, LPA is aware that there is a limit on visitations due to COVID-19 Precautionary reasons.
On 09/29/2020 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) McCrory reviewed physician’s report for R1 which indicated R1 is not able to bathe self. At approximately 4:15PM LPA attempted to contact R1 via cell phone. There was no answer and LPA left detailed voicemail message. On 01/21/2021 at 11:20 AM LPA again attempted to contact R1 however, the call went straight to voicemail and the voicemail box was full.
On 01/21/2021 11:25 AM LPA contacted POA of R1 via phone. POA states R1 was not showering, only taking sponge baths and that was due to R1's refusal of facility services. POA states staff would constantly come and clean R1 for toileting accidents. POA states R1 has an overflow of boxes in an additional room.
On 01/21/2021 at 10:45AM Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) McCrory contacted R3 via phone. The following pertinent information was obtained during the call: R3 states she is doing okay. R3 states she has hired an independent provider for bed baths that comes in multiple times a week. R3 states that the independent provider stays over (assigned time) to do housekeeping. R3 sates her son has not been able to come to do any cleaning because this place (the facility) is on lockdown (limited visiting due to COVID-19 precautions). R3 states most of the time she is able to get changed pretty well.
Based on interviews and observations, the LPA finds these allegations to be (U) UNSUBSTANTIATED. This agency has investigated the above listed allegations. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violations occurred therefore, we have found the allegations to be UNSUBSTANTIATED.
