On 3/26/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Grace Donato conducted an unannounced complaint investigation visit. LPA met with Administrator Lola Bullock and explained the purpose of today's visit.

Regarding the allegation of Staff did not assist resident with obtaining medical care, the Reporting Party (RP) stated that resident (R1) fell during an outing, was assessed, and did not refuse to be sent out to the emergency room, however staff took 3-4 hours before deciding to send R1.

Based on record reviews, progress notes obtained from the facility stated that R1, despite complaints of back pain, was just provided first aid and water during the outing. No calls were made to 911 to send R1 to emergency room for further assessment. When R1 has returned to the facility and was assessed, the facility then called 911 and R1 was sent to emergency room.
