13 | On March 8, 2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Murial Han conducted an unannounced 10-day complaint visit. LPA met with the Interim of Executive Director, Amanda North and explained the purpose of the visit.
Regarding to allegation of- staff failed to notify authorized representative of resident's fall resulting in hospitalization, the reporting party stated that resident #1 (R1) was transferred to the hospital in December 2022 due to a fall and the authorized responsible party was not notified by the facility when the incident occurred instead the responsible party was notified by the hospital on the following day.
According to the Interim Executive Director, when a resident has a change of condition, the facility completes an Unusual Incident/Injury Report (LIC624) that indicates who were notified including but not limiting to the responsible party, Licensing, Ombudsman, etc. and facility staff completes additional documentation of the change of condition.
Based on the LIC 624 for R1's incident, the only individual that was notified of the incident was the responsible party, however, based on another internal documentation, it indicated that the responsible party was not notified and the responsible party communicated in writing to the former Executive Director that he/she was not notified of the incident and he/she was seeking for an explanation.
