13 | On 1/26/2022, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Chavez conducted a 10-day complaint investigation. During the investigation, LPA interviewed the administrator regarding Complaint # 29-AS-20220107104707 and made observations.
At 11:45 am, LPA observed the administrator wearing an N95 mask that was falling down his nose. LPA questioned the administrator who stated that when he “talks, the mask falls down.” LPA mentioned that LPA Diaz visited on 1/12/22 and noted that the administrator’s mask was not being worn properly. LPA Chavez recollected that on a visit on 10/05/21, the administrator’s mask was also falling below his nose which LPA discussed with administrator. LPA asked the administrator if other personnel have not worn masks or done so improperly, and administrator stated he had a conversation recently with a staff who was working with a resident and not wearing a mask.
The facility failed to protect the personal rights of residents in care to be able to receive safe and healthful accommodations, in that the facility staff failed to wear face coverings properly while providing care and supervision to residents in care. This is a violation of official government orders requiring the wearing of face coverings while working under specified conditions.
Pursuant to Title 22, California Code of Regulations, the deficiency will be cited on 9099-D.
Exit interview conducted, deficiency cited, a copy of this report and appeal rights emailed to Administrator.
