25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Christine Dolores arrived unannounced to conduct a case management – deficiencies visit. LPA met with Resident Care Supervisor, Lisa Lanford.
During visit, the facility had 4 staff members working who are all fingerprint cleared and associated to the facility.
On 09/29/2023, the Department received two letters from the facility requesting a Criminal Record Exemption for staff (S1) and (S2). Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Romeo Manzano called and spoke with staff (S3) who states S1 had started working in the facility on-call for the past 6 months. The review of records shows S1’s criminal background clearance was pending, therefore, S1 was not fingerprint cleared to be working facilities.
Based on interview, S1 is no longer employed at the facility. S3 states, S1 was hired in February 2023 and worked at least once to twice a week. On 09/29/2023, S1 was immediately released from work for not obtaining a fingerprint clearance from the Department.
LPA obtained S1's Guardian information, hire date, and facility's LIC500 via email from S3.
A deficiency was cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22. See LIC 809-D. A civil penalty is being assessed for the amount of $500 ($100 per day x 5 days = $500), for staff (S1) working at the facility without fingerprint clearance. Please see LIC-421BG. This report was reviewed with Resident Care Supervisor, Lisa Lanford and a copy of the report and appeal rights were provided. |
