Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Dang Nguyen conducted a Case Management visit to cite deficiencies identified during an unannounced Complaint Investigation. LPA introduced himself, stated the purpose of the visit, and was granted entry by Caregiver Perla Martinez-Gutierrez. Administrator Miguel “Michael” Malone arrived during the visit. All staff encountered had a current criminal record clearance.

LPA conducted a complaint investigation visit on 07/01/2021 and observed the following deficiencies:

-Staff #1 (S1)
(see LIC 811 Confidential Names List for identification of S1) spoke Spanish but was not able to communicate in English. At the time, there were no other staff on duty to assist or translate for S1.

All residents in care did not speak Spanish and exhibited memory loss and disorientation; each was unable to communicate with S1.

-There were containers of furniture polish, glass cleaner, air freshener, and other solvents on top of a common area hallway counter. In an unlocked hallway cabinet were two can of air freshener and one can of disinfectant. On top of the bathroom counter in Bedroom #4 was a cleaning solvent containing bleach.
