On 07/13/2023 at 09:30 AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Melody Brown arrived unannounced at the facility to deliver findings for the allegation listed above. LPA Brown was greeted and granted entry by a staff at the reception area and Assistant Administrator Erika Montoya was contacted and LPA Brown explained the purpose of the visit. The investigation consisted of observation, interviews and a review of pertinent documentation.

Through the information gathered during the investigation, it was confirmed by observation, documents review and interviews that there are still roaches in the facility after cleaning and spraying for them was conducted. Although the facility is taking action for the roaches, as Assistant Administrator Montoya indicated, it appears that there is not sufficient treatment being done by the facility’s contracted exterminator to aggressively rid the roaches. Also, Assistant Administrator Montoya reported that the facility will have a sufficient follow up to their contracted exterminators to control the roaches in the building. Interviews with staff also indicated knowledge of roaches at the facility. *** Cont. in LIC9099C ***

LPA Brown toured the facility with Assistant Administrator Montoya last 07/12/2023 at around 10:15 AM and LPA Brown observed bugs traps placed at residents’ rooms and at Assistant Administrators’ Montoya’s office as well. Also, during the visit, Assistant Administrator Montoya reported that they are aware of the roaches at the facility, and they already drafted an agreement with their contracted exterminator but still pending approval from their management. LPA Brown requested for the facility’s exterminator monthly services invoices record and LPA Brown observed monthly services conducted but per Assistant Administrator Montoya’s statement to LPA Brown that the contracted exterminator is spraying the outside of the facility and whatever the reported issue was. LPA Brown recommended to Assistant Administrator Montoya that in addition to spraying the outside of the facility, the contracted exterminator must sprayed/serviced all rooms, not just selected resident rooms. Assistant Administrator Montoya reported that they have a plan with the contracted exterminator to address the issue that is for signature by their management already which is to sprayed/service not selected room, but all rooms must be sprayed.

Based on observation and interviews, the allegation of Staff do not ensure facility is kept free of pests for residents in care is SUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint is SUBSTANTIATED means that the allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met.



An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report, LIC9099, LIC9099D and appeal rights was discussed and provided to Assistant Administrator Erika Montoya.
