Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Lyndia Sager conducted a case management visit to deliver final investigation findings telephonically with Stephania Radu, Administrator, due to the situation surrounding the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), and to implement mitigation measures.

During the course of an investigation regarding complaint #29-AS-20190813113112 allegations, LPA Sager observed the following deficiencies:

LPA requested Hospice documents related to Resident #1 (R1). The Administrator was not able to provide all the hospice documents related to R1. LPA had to obtain some of the missing information from the Hospice Agency.

LPA reviewed the Physician’s Reports dated 05/23/2019 and 06/23/2020 – both state R1 had a diagnosis of Dementia. Information obtained from the Hospice Agency states R1 was diagnosed with Dementia from 05/16/2018 through 01/27/2021. The facility Plan of Operation states that they will not accept or retain residents with a diagnosis of Dementia.

During staff interviews on 04/21/2021, LPA observed 5 staff who spoke only Spanish or needed a translator during the interview.

Deficiencies issued on 809-D, telephonic exit interview was conducted with the Administrator, and a copy of the report was provided via email for signature. Appeal Rights emailed.
