25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Dang Nguyen conducted an unannounced Case Management – Incident visit. LPA was welcomed by, identified himself to, and discussed the purpose of the visit with Executive Director Jackie Banks.
Today's visit was in response to an LIC624 Incident Report, which licensee self-submitted to the CCLD San Diego Regional Office (transmission date 05/19/2023). According to the LIC624, errors by med tech Staff #1 (S1) led to Resident #1 (R1) receiving one (1) extra dose per day of one (1) of their medications, beyond what was prescribed by their physician, during the period of 05/01/2023 through 05/12/2023. [See LIC 811 Confidential Names List for a description of person identifiers used in this report]. The medication errors resulted in increased sleepiness and decreased appetite for R1 during the above dates, but they did not result in serious injury/illness to R1 or require hospitalization or medical treatment.
During today’s visit, LPA performed a brief facility tour and welfare check on R1. R1 was active, alert, animated, and verbally stated they felt well. LPA also reviewed pertinent records and interviewed relevant staff.
Due to their baseline memory loss, R1 was not able to participate as a reliable historian/interviewee. LPA observed R1 resided in the facility’s secured memory care neighborhood. Per their LIC602 Physician’s Report, R1 was diagnosed with Dementia and required staff assistance with taking their prescribed medications.
