13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Natasha Persaud conducted an unannounced visit to conclude the complaint investigation. LPA was greeted and allowed entry into the facility and met with Staff, Allan Aganon. LPA spoke with Licensee, Connie Banting via telephone while at the facility.
During the investigation, LPA toured the facility, and interviewed staff, resident, and outside sources. It was alleged Resident #1 (R1) was unlawfully evicted. On 02/27/22, R1 was transported to the hospital for evaluation. It was reported that when R1 was ready for discharge from the hospital, the licensee refused R1’s return to the facility. Outside source interviews revealed the licensee denied the return of R1 due to R1 needing a higher level of care and the licensee’s hospice waiver would exceed the allotted capacity. Outside source interviews also revealed the hospital was told by the licensee that they would not be accepting R1 back to the facility. Further outside source interviews revealed the hospital did not have any communication with the licensee regarding the refusal of R1’s return to the facility. Therefore, the hospital was not aware the licensee was refusing to accept R1 back to the facility. Continued on an LIS 9099C. |
