Based on record review and interviews R1 did lose weight while living at the facility, but not due to lack of nutritional needs from the facility staff. R1 contracted COVID while living at the facility, as a result, R1 lost some weight due to illness. R1’s roommate passed away shortly after contracting COVID. According to staff R1 seemed sad after his roommate passed and refused to eat for about a weeks time. All staff report R1 being a great eater. Documents and interviews R1 was served three meals daily, snacks in between, and nutritional shake to be given daily after each meal per physician’s orders. MAR’s note five incidents of nutritional shakes not given but not documented if R1 refused or staff missed administration. R1 can tell staff if he is hungry and will often times ask for snacks.
Based on interview the previous management was not weighing R1 like they said they were, which made it seem as if R1 had lost a lot of weight in a short period of time. R1 was weighed monthly along with other residents. Physicians report on 7/15/2020 shows R1 weight at 181.2 pounds. Per the weight log from the facility R1 weighed 9/20/2020 at 173.8 pounds, 10/14/2020 173.1 pounds, 11/13/2020 155 pounds, 11/16/2020 153 pounds. R1 and two residents of the facility stated the facility takes good care of them, feeds them well, and had no complaints against the facility.
Based on information obtained the aforementioned allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint 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 did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is unsubstantiated.
There are no deficiencies being cited per Title 22 Regulations. Exit interview was conducted with Lori. Copy of the report was sent to via e-mail with a "read receipt" to verify the LIC 9099, 9099 C, and Appeal Rights were received. Lori is to print out the report and fax signed copies to LPA at 916-263-4744 or email to LPA at ashley.boothe@dss.ca.gov. |
