13 | On 3/25/21, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Mohamed Filouane conducted a 10-day complaint inspection visit with Licensee Ceasar Grepo, over the phone. Due to COVID-19 and health and safety concerns, LPA was not present in the facility. LPA informed the Licensee of the allegation, explained the purpose of the phone call, and then delivered the findings of the investigation in one visit.
Concerning the allegation of the facility locking the gate, LPA Filouane investigated and interviewed the Licensee. LPA verified with the Licensee during an interview why the facility's entrance gate has a padlock. The Licensee did not deny the allegation and confirmed that the entrance gate does, indeed, have a padlock preventing access into and out of the facility. During the interview, the Licensee stated the padlock was used as security to keep non-essential workers from entering the facility due to COVID-19 concerns. LPA explained to the Licensee that locking the residents on facility premises by day or night is a violation of their personal rights under Title 22 regulations. |
