On 09/20/2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Pang Lee and Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Czarrina Camilon-Lee arrived unannounced to this facility to conduct a complaint visit. LPAs met with administrator, Melissa Orelle and explained the purpose of the visit. The purpose of this visit is to deliver complaint findings for the allegation above. The current census is 103. A brief interview with administrator assistant, Tasha Keitt and administrator, Melissa Orelle was conducted.

Allegation: Staff did not administer resident's medications as prescribed.

It was alleged that that the facility Staff did not administer resident's medications as prescribed. Throughout the course of the investigation, LPA Lee reviewed resident MAR sheets and conducted interviews. This investigation revealed that 4 out of 6 MAR sheets are incomplete for the month of July and August. The MAR Sheets indicated that resident’s medications are not being recorded; therefore, it is unclear if resident received their medications. Furthermore, LPA Lee interviewed 7 out of 10 residents who shared that their medications are not being administered from MedTech’s.
