25 | On November 15, 2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kiran Jain conducted an unannounced case management visit. LPA met with Health Services Director (HSD), Baneen Amiri and Executive Director (ED), Stephenie Brice and explained the purpose of the visit.
During the investigation of complaint control number #26-AS-20241024162149, LPA Jain reviewed the facility's incident reports for Resident (R1) and found that the facility did not send any incident reports for R1 to Licensing in which R1 had fall incidents and or was sent to the hospital, from August 31, 2024 to October 17, 2024.
Based on the records review done for the facility's internal charting notes records for R1, the following incidents were documented:
- R1 had fall episodes on 08/31/2024, 10/11/2024, 10/13/2024, and 10/14/2024.
- The facility observed a bump on R1's right cheek on 10/06/2024.
- R1 was sent to the hospital on 08/31/2024, 10/11/2024, 10/14/2024, and 10/17/2024.
Based on the interview conducted with staff HSD and ED, HSD stated they are not able to keep up and send UIR due to so many fall incidents. Everything related to the falls has been sent and communicated with the family and doctor for any changes from falls, cuts, and increased confusion from R1’s baseline. HSD stated they would send incident reports regarding falls or any other change of condition to the Licensing in the future.
Based on record reviewed and interview conducted, the facility did not submit Incident Reports to the Licensing when R1 had multiple fall incidents in the facility and or was sent to the hospital from August 31 to October 17 in 2024 which poses/posed a potential health, safety or personal rights risk to persons in care.
A deficiency was cited under the California Code of Regulations, Title 22. Failure to correct the deficiency by the due date may result in civil penalties. See LIC 809-D page for more information.
This report was reviewed with Baneen Amiri and Stephenie Brice, and a copy of this report along with appeal rights were provided.
