On 06/25/2024 it was alleged that "Untrained staff providing care and supervision." The Department’s investigation consisted of unannounced facility visits, interviews with facility staff and records review.

Regarding the allegation, "Untrained staff providing care and supervision.," it was alleged that facility staff are not trained properly before providing care and supervision to residents.

Records review of the facility staff training records indicated that training is not standardized for each staff member in the same roles. Additionally, the training subject matter listed under CCLD guidelines required for facility staff is not fulfilled by all members of the staff. The LPA reviewed care staff and found that nine (9) of the total forty (40) audited did not have the required training.
