13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Deborah Mullen conducted an unannounced visit to deliver the findings of the above allegation. LPA met with Susiani Halim, Executive Director. The investigation included interviews with staff, and a review of resident 1’s (R1s) medical records and facility file. Due to R1s passing, LPA was unable to interview R1.
The allegation states staff neglect contributed to resident’s death. The investigation revealed R1 was sent to the hospital and admitted on June 11, 2019. R1 remained hospitalized from June 11, 2019 until the time of his/her death on July 31, 2019. A review of R1’s medical records did not indicate the cause of death was related to neglect on behalf of the facility.
Based upon the above stated information the allegation that staff neglect contributed to resident's death is unsubstantiated. An unsubstantiated allegation means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur. An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report, along with LIC 811 (Confidential Names List) and appeal rights were reviewed and provided to Ms. Halim.
