13 | On 03/20/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jaime Vado conducted an unannounced complaint investigation visit to deliver findings regarding the allegations received. LPA met with the administrator Ricardo Aban.
During the investigation LPA conducted interviews and made facility observations. LPA observed the kitchen area during a meal time, and after, and there were no observations of rodents, or other pests. The facility is contracted with a pest control company regularly who visit twice a month going back several years as a precaution to prevent any pests or rodents. LPA observed the way excess meals are stored for residents as covered and labled with names. Bathrooms were inspected and did not see it as unkempt. Interviews show that there is a cleaning schedule in place and LPA observed staff cleaning the kitchen post lunch being served and there are janitor services in place. In regards to the facility free of hazards, it was referenced that there was construction and maintenance. LPA observed outside area under maintenance as being roped off with yellow caution tape and two contractors were in the area. The tools and supplies were pushed to the sides and out of residents way. Construction materials were observed as well stored under a sheltered area along the sides of the facility out of walkways. These allegations are unsubstantiated based on observations and interviews conducted.
Based on these observations, the above allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED.
Although the allegations may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the above allegations are unsubstantiated at this time. |
