On April 26, 2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Komal Charitra made an unannounced visit to deliver an amended report that was provided on April 21, 2023 by LPA Komal Charitra and LPA Grace Donato. LPA met with Caregivers, Mikhail Serrano and explained the purpose of the visit.

On April 21, 2023, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Komal Charitra and Grace Donato conducted an unannounced complaint visit to deliver the findings for the above allegation. LPA met with Caregivers, Mikhail Serrano and Angelo Sunpayco and explained the purpose of the visit. Administrator, Edmund Sunpayco and Co-Administrator, Rose Lo joined shortly thereafter.

Regarding allegation that Licensee will not allow resident to return to the facility, according to the reporting party, the Co-Administrator was not allowing Resident 1 (R1) to return back to the facility due to R1’s behavior, lack of staffing, and R1’s difficult family dynamic. During the investigation, LPA interviewed Administrator, Co-Administrator, and staff members, reviewed R1’s file and reviewed the hospital discharge documentation.

Based on hospital discharge notes reviewed, R1 was admitted to the hospital on December 9, 2022 due to shortness of breath. On December 28, 2022, R1 was to be discharged back to the facility, however R1 tested for COVID at the hospital. R1 isolated at the hospital till 1/6/2023 and was going to be discharged from the hospital on 1/7/2023, however on 1/6/2023, when the hospital contacted the facility, the Co-administrator indicated that she cannot accept R1 back on 1/6/2023 and 1/7/2023 due to lack of caregivers and having other COVID positive residents at the facility.

According to the Administrator, R1 was to be discharged from the hospital on 1/6/23, but the Co-administrator wanted R1 to remain at the hospital because there were 2 clients that were COVID positive at the facility. In addition, the Co-administrator acknowledged, she wanted to have R1 remain at the hospital because the facility was experiencing staffing challenges and was unable to provide for R1 and the other residents at the home until 1/7/2023. Nevertheless, although R1 returned back to the facility on 1/9/2023, the facility did not want to accept R1 back due to staffing challenges.

Based on interviews and record reviews during the investigation, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. Therefore, this allegation is determined to be substantiated. Deficiencies of the California Code of Regulations, Title, 22 cited on the LIC9099-D. Failure to correct the deficiencies may result in civil penalties.

This report is reviewed and discussed with Co-Administrator and a copy is provided with appeals rights.
