Residents (R2 and R3) reported that, on December 5, 2025, they informed S1 that R1 needed to be spoon fed their meals. Staff member (S2) reported in their interview that, on December 5, 2025, they stopped by the facility to review files and informed S1 that R1 needed to be spoon fed their meals. S2 reported that no one answered the door for them as they arrived at the care home and they observed S1 lying on the couch, looking at their phone while R1 was sitting at the dining table with food in front of them. S2 stated that they asked S1 what they were doing, and S1 stated that they were on break from cleaning. S2 reported that they asked S1 if they fed R1 and S1 responded, “[R1] can feed themselves.” S2 stated that they explained to S1 that R1 is incapable of feeding themselves and R1 could not eat unless staff spoon feed them, to which S1 responded, “I didn’t know that,” and proceeded to spoon feed R1. S2 stated that R1 “seemed weak” and not at baseline, as well as unkempt in relation to the care provided by Administrator, Moria Gaunavou. S2 stated that they didn’t contact EMS for R1 as they explained that R1’s condition didn’t require medical attention at the time, despite appearing weak and not at baseline.

Between December 6, 2025 and December 7, 2025, R2 and R3 reported to the Department that they witnessed R1 sitting at the dining table around lunchtime with a bowl of untouched oatmeal still in front of them from breakfast. On December 8, 2025 at around 1200 hours, R1’s family visited R1 and found them unresponsive at the dining table with a bowl of oatmeal sitting in front of them. S1 called 9-1-1 and R1 was transported to the hospital. Based on medical records, R1 was diagnosed with severe dehydration, starvation ketoacidosis, urinary tract infection (UTI), and right basilar atelectasis.

S2 visited the facility approximately one (1) week prior to December 5, 2025 and recalled R1 being at baseline, walking, and smiling. R1’s family visited R1 on December 3, 2025 and R1 appeared “normal” and interacting like they typically would.

The Department was unable to locate S1 for an interview regarding the allegations.

Handwritten Care Note authored by Administrator Gaunavou dated December 10, 2025 indicated that, upon returning from vacation, Administrator was notified by residents that S1 did not provide the residents with their medications and residents had to dispense their own medications.

The Department conducted interviews with the residents in care. During interview, R2 stated that they never witnessed S1 give R1 their medications. R3 stated that R1 and resident (R4) never received their medications when S1 was working at the care home. R4 confirmed that S1 did not provide them with their prescribed medications while S1 was the sole caregiver at the care home for approximately four (4) to five (5) days. During interview, resident (R5) indicated that they missed medications while S1 was working at the care home. R1’s Medical Assessment dated September 10, 2025 states that R1 is unable to administer their own prescription medications and is unable to store their own medications. R1’s Admission Agreement dated February 14, 2025 and R1’s Appraisal/Needs and Services Plan dated February 15, 2025 indicated that R1 required staff assistance with all activities of daily living (ADLs). R4’s Medical Assessment dated January 22, 2026 states that R4 is unable to administer their own prescription medications and is unable to store their own medications.

During visit conducted on December 17, 2025, LPA conducted a medication count for R1, comparing the resident's Centrally Stored Medication Forms (CSMFs) and Medication Administration Records (MARs) with medications centrally stored for the resident. LPA observed that four (4) of four (4) medications counted for R1 were off count when comparing count to R1’s CSMF and MAR. LPA observed two (2) medications to be over the amount that was documented, and two (2) medications to be under the amount documented. Care home was unable to provide any records during visit to justify medication count being off. During mediation count, LPA observed that R1’s MAR showed signatures from S1 indicating medications were given to R1 while R1 was out of the community due to hospital visit from December 8, 2025 to December 13, 2025. LPA conducted interviews with residents during investigation, including R2, R3, and R4. R2 and R3 reiterated that S1 did not provide assistance with medication administration while being the sole caregiver from December 5, 2025 to December 10, 2025. R3 stated that R4 never got their medications the entire time S1 was working. R4 confirmed with LPA that they did not receive their medications while S1 was working at the care home.

On June 16, 2026, LPA and LPM conducted a visit to follow-up regarding citations previously issued at the care home. During visit, LPA and LPM observed concerns regarding cleanliness and repair of the care home, including cleanliness of floors and doors, cobwebs inside the shed in the yard and in the care home, urine containers not emptied, and tarp hanging from roof. Pursuant to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, a deficiency was cited per 87303 Maintenance and Operation (a) "The facility shall be clean, safe, sanitary and in good repair at all times. Maintenance shall include provision of maintenance services and procedures for the safety and well-being of residents, employees and visitors." This requirement was not met based on observations, which determined that the care home did not ensure the premises was clean and in good repair regarding multiple observed items addressed during visit. A plan of correction (POC) was to include the care home creating a system for cleaning the care home, addressing biowaste, and addressing repairs. Care home was also to address all concerns observed during visit. LPA cleared deficiency during a follow-up inspection. Based on the information above, the allegation that staff are not ensuring facility is clean and in good repair is determined to be substantiated. Due to care home receiving a citation for 87303(a) Maintenance and Operation during visit conducted on June 16, 2026, no additional citations for allegation will be issued.

Based on interviews conducted, observations, and records reviewed by the Department, as well as a medication count, the preponderance of evidence standards have been met. Therefore, the above allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED. Per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, deficiencies are being cited on the attached 9099-D pages. A civil penalty in the amount of $250 was assessed for today's date due to repeat violation. As a result of the investigation findings, an immediate civil penalty per Health and Safety Code §1569.49 in the amount of $500 for the date of July 15, 2026 is assessed for a violation that the department determines resulted in the injury or illness of a person in care. An additional civil penalty assessment is under review and a determination is pending. LPA will return on a future date to assess an additional civil penalty if warranted.

Exit interview was conducted. A copy of this report and appeal rights were provided. Signature on these forms acknowledges receipt of these documents.

On December 13, 2025, R1 was discharged from the hospital. Medical staff recommended that R1 receive hospice services at Legacy Lane Senior Living II after discharge. Based on interviews conducted by the Department, R1’s family denied hospice services but agreed to have R1 placed on oxygen. According to R1’s family, R1 had been declining medically since around October 2025, was losing weight, and needed to be spoon fed their meals.

Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office detective interviewed R1’s primary care physician, who reported that R1’s family did not report any medical concerns related to R1’s decline but knew that R1 needed to be spoon fed. R1’s primary care physician noted that R1 was diagnosed with dementia and was admitted to the care home for acute renal failure. R1 did not require a special diet. Based on the findings written above, the allegation that R1 died due to staff neglect is unsubstantiated.

Based on interviews conducted and records reviewed, the preponderance of evidence standards have not been met. Therefore, the above allegation is found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that a complaint allegation is unsubstantiated means that, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.

Exit interview was conducted. A copy of this report and appeal rights were provided. Signature on these forms acknowledges receipt of these documents.
