Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Magda Malcore conducted an unannounced visit to the facility to initiate a complaint investigation on the above allegation.

Regarding the allegation staff denied resident's request to go the hospital for a follow-up appointment, four (4) staff interviewed deny not taking a resident to the hospital for a follow-up appointment. Interviews with three (3) residents reveal not enough evidence to corroborate the allegation.

Based on evidence obtained during this investigation, the allegation above is Unsubstantiated; meaning 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.
