On 11/02/2022, at 1:50 p.m., Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Rayshaun Nickolas made an unannounced visit to the facility to deliver the finding on the above allegation. LPA met with Pebbles Nakielski and explained the purpose of the visit.

The investigation consisted of LPA interviews and reviewed facility file documents pertinent to the investigation. The investigation revealed the following: The allegation indicates that between July 22, 2022-July 28, 2022, resident # 1 (R1) was in the hospital, and unauthorized charges were made on their debit card. The allegation further alleges that R1 did not have their bank card in their possession while in the hospital and believes someone at the facility made the unauthorized charges. The evidence collected (interviews and reviewed facility file documents pertinent to the investigation) was inconsistent with the alleged allegations.
