Staff confirmed the facility policy is that an inventory check is completed during the time a client is admitted into the facility and when a client receives items throughout their stay. A review of the facility admission policy that was submitted at the time of licensure states that the facility will check all medications against orders as well as count all medications and enter into the Centrally Stored Medication Record. Additionally, admission policies further state “client’s belongings are inventoried by staff with the client present to ensure that no unsafe items are brought into the facility”.

Based on interviews conducted, it is believed that C1 obtained the substance in her belongings and not from another client. Based on interviews conducted and records reviewed, the facility neglected to follow their approved admission policies which resulted in C1 obtaining opioids and overdosing.

In addition, civil penalties in the amount of $500.00 are assessed today for a resident sustaining a serious bodily injury while in care.

The facility is advised that a result of the serious bodily injury, the violation warrants a civil penalty assessment based on Health and Safety Code §1569.49. At this time, the civil penalty assessment is under review. LPA will return at a future date to assess a civil penalty if warranted.

Per California Code of Regulations, Title 22, citations were issued on 809-D.

An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report was given to Marco Sanchez
