On 4/22/2021 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Chris Hopkins conducted an unannounced complaint investigation regarding the above allegations. LPA met with Executive Director Billy Mitchell via tele-visit due to Covid-19 procedures and explained the purpose of the tele-visit.

Regarding the allegations above, LPA's David Marrufo and Karen Taku conducted the investigation, and based on interviews with staff (am/pm shift), residents were never locked in their rooms and never complained about being locked in their rooms. Residents were checked on first thing in the morning and assisted with dressing and toileting, and/or changing of undergarments. If soiled bedding was observed, it's changed immediately. Residents needs are being met, residents are fed three meals a day with snacks in between along with water being served and available throughout the day. Staff throughout the facility has stated that the facility has never smelled like urine.
