13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Anna Bueno conducted a subsequent unannounced visit to the facility to continue the investigation the above mentioned complaint allegations and deliver findings. LPA identified herself to direct support staff (DSP) Crystal Guzman who was informed of the reason for today’s visit. The investigation included staff interviews, facility inspection, and records review. The Department was not able to interview Client 1 (C1).
The allegations are Staff handled resident in a rough manner and Staff spoke to resident in an inappropriate manner. Interview with Witness 1 (W1) stated that C1 has a history of making false accusations but that W1 has not observed concerning behavior from any facility staff. Client interviews deny inappropriate interactions with any staff. Interview with Staff 1 (S1) stated that they have never placed their hands on or used inappropriate language with C1. Interviews with S1 and Staff 2 (S2) confirm that C1 has made accusations of S1 physically abusing C1 in the past but were not true. Interviews with W1, S1, and S2 stated that law enforcement investigated the allegations however no reports were filed. Records reviewed reveal that C1 makes false allegations. Based on the above information, the allegations are therefore UNSUBSTANTIATED. |
