Facility closed 11/18/24. The Department's investigation revealed that this client was schizophrenic with autism epilepsy and demonstrated behavior disorders requiring a high level of supervision. The Department also conferred with consulting physician form Medical Fraud and Elder Abuse and the client's psychiatrist who both concurred that the dehydration was not severe but minor and felt it was due to a change in dosage of client's lithium medication which resulted in increased behaviors, hospitalization and the lithium medication was immediately adjusted by the psychiatrist. There was no evidence to support lack of compliance in client's diet.The Department cannot prove or disprove the above allegations. Complaint findings are deemed Inconclusive.
