32 | While touring the facility during today's visit, at 2:05pm LPA noted the cabinet under the kitchen sink unlocked and unattended with a can of aerosol Easy Off oven spray. At 2:12pm the drawer that is not lockable to the left of the stove/oven containing a steak knife and at 2:13pm a butcher knife in the drawer that is not lockable to the left of the dishwasher underneath the utensil container with the handle visibly sticking out. At 2:18pm LPA observed a bottle of glass cleaner in the east side yard and at 2:20pm LPA noted the shed in the backyard was unlocked and unattended. The shed contained multiple sharp landscaping tools, three tubs of grout compound, a plastic basin with a steak knife in it, and eleven (11) paint/sealant cans.
During today's visit LPA noted the kitchen knife drawer and hallway bathroom cabinet to be locked. Staff stated that the knife drawer lock was recently fixed but before it was fixed the keys would get stuck in the lock. Staff stated the hallway bathroom cabinet was left unlocked this month because they had just pulled something out of it to use in another room and admitted that they did leave the cabinet unattended.
Resident record review determined three of five residents are at risk if given access to knives and cleaning chemicals.
Based on all interviews conducted and documents obtained, at this time the above allegation was found to be substantiated, there is a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.
Exit interview conducted, deficiency cited on LIC809-D page, report signed, appeal rights and report provided to the Administrator. |
