Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Crystal Colvin arrived at the facility unannounced in order to initiate an investigation of a complaint with the above allegation(s). LPA identified herself and discussed the purpose of the visit and the elements of the allegation(s) with Facility Director Yessenia Rebolledo. Below is a summary of the complaint investigation findings:

Regarding allegation "Staff will not accept resident back at facility": LPA Colvin conducted interviews with staff and witnesses as well as reviewed the file for previous resident (R1). LPA Colvin observed that the facility issued a 90-day eviction notice to R1 and R1's responisbile party on 7/2/22, which cited that the facility was unable to meet R1's care needs. On 7/4/22, R1 was taken to the hospital for a psychiatric hold due to manic behaviors. According to interviews condcuted, on 7/7/22, when R1 was ready to be discharge, the facility refused to acccept R1 back, which Director/Administrator Yessenia Rebolledo confirmed with LPA Colvin. Administrator stated that R1's behaviors were becoming too much for the facility to handle. Therefore, due interviews conducted, the allegation "Staff will not accept resident back at facility" is SUBSTANTIATED.

Regarding allegation "Facility did not retain resident's records": This allegation pertains to the facility not retaining R1's Physician's Report (LIC602), which was provided to the facility upon R1's admission. This document was requested from the facility for the purpose of obtaining documents needed to find R1 new placement. During today's inspection, LPA Colvin observed that there is no LIC602 in R1's file at the facility. When asked about the missing document, Administrator confirmed that they do not have the document as it was provided to the emergency response (PERT) team when R1 was being taken away on a psychiatric hold, and that the facility never received this document back. Therefore, due to interviews and record review, the allegation "Facility did not retain resident's records" is SUBSTANTIATED.

A finding that the complaint is SUBSTANTIATED means that the allegation(s) is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met.

Due to observations made by LPA Colvin, the facility was cited, and deficiencies noted on LIC 9099 D. An exit interview was conducted where this report and appeal rights were discussed. A copy this report, LIC 9099D, and appeal rights were provided to Facility Director Yessenia Rebolledo during the exit interview.
