32 | 6 out of 8 residents stated that staff always wore masks while at the facility and 2 residents are not oriented and unable to answer LPA questions. LPA Brown interviewed 6 staff. 6 out of 6 staff stated that they always wear mask and they were provided the necessary personal protective equipment (PPE).
The second allegation indicates that facility is malodorous. Interviews with staff and residents also indicated that the facility does not have malodorous smell. 6 out of 8 residents stated that facility does not have malodorous smell and 2 residents are not oriented and unable to answer LPA questions. LPA Brown interviewed 6 staff. 6 out of 6 staff stated that facility does not have malodorous smell. During today’s visit, LPAs Brown and Lama toured numerous parts of the facility, including common areas and several resident bedrooms, and did not observe any malodorous scent.
Based on the information obtained and observation, there is not enough evidence to state facility staff do not wear a mask (allegation #1) and facility is malodorous (allegation #2). Although the allegations may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are unsubstantiated at this time.
An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report (LIC 9099) was provided to Administrator Michael Garcia. |
