(#1) LPA observed staff use outlook calendar to coordinate medical appointments. Residents reoccurring appointments are coordinated and staff make appointments based on needs and services. R1's physician ordered blood work, resulted critical, and R1 was transported by emergency medical transport to hospital and admitted. Resident two (R2) was observed to be provided assistance immediately upon request for Crisis. Resident three (R3) stated they had not seen a dentist in two years and wanted to go. LPA observed dental appointments on calendar but none scheduled for R3 during records review and it was unclear if R3 had asked to go or whether delay was due to COVID precautions of dental offices closures.

(#2) LPA observed residents to be bathed, groomed, wearing clothing free of spills and debris and no body odor. The house rules state residents need to maintain hygiene and shower at least twice weekly. Interviews conclude residents are provided verbal prompting for reminders and provided assistance as necessary. R1's responsible party reported staff are "not heavy on verbal prompting" for R1 who requires prompting for bathing teeth brushing. Staff one (S1) stated toothbrushes are changed monthly or more often as needed. R1 reported not brushing teeth. R1 requested shave and it is unclear is R1 requested trim or full shave as observed with facial hair.

It was determined in the course of the investigation based on the information provided through documentation and interview, the aforementioned allegations are unsubstantiated. A finding that the allegation is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.

Per California Code of Regulations (CCRs) - Title 22, Division 6, no deficiencies are being cited. Exit interview held, copy of report given.
