They mentioned that R1 did report to their specialized practitioner, and it was at this time, they were informed regarding the incident. When they spoke with R1, they mentioned to OS1, R2 had masturbated in their room. Interview with the Licensee confirmed that they were informed regarding the indecent exposure incidents. The licensee mentioned they believed that since R1 wanted their own room, they felt it was the reason they had told them about the incidents, and believed that their underlying medical conditions had something to do with it. The licensee later mentioned that they had spoken with R2, who acknowledged they had done the action, but was not hurting anyone. The licensee said that it was their right to do the action, but informed R2 that they would need to do it in the bathroom. An interview with R2 regarding the incident was attempted, but R2 became upset, yelled, and stormed out.

Based on the Department’s investigation of the above-mentioned allegation and the evidence obtained during staff, resident, and outside source interviews, and records reviewed, there is sufficient evidence to meet the preponderance of evidence standard. Therefore, the above allegation is deemed to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, is being cited on the attached LIC 9099D of this report.

The report was discussed, a plan of correction was jointly developed, and an exit interview was conducted with Licensee Victoria Legaspi. A copy of this report, along with Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 3/22) were provided to Licensee Legaspi at the conclusion of the visit. The signature below confirms the receipt of these documents.
