13 | 03/07/2024 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jaynae Boyles made an unannounced visit to the facility and met with the Administrator. The purpose of this visit is to deliver the results of a complaint investigation. During the interview process, the administrator was interviewed.
During the review of records, LPA reviewed the files of one resident (R1), including, admissions agreement, preplacement appraisal, admissions policies, refund policies, house rules, Hospice admissions and payment history. LPA investigated the allegation, “Staff did not refund authorized representative after residents’ death”. The admissions agreement stated that,” refunds will be granted after 30 days notices if Resident is transferring to another facility and after the room has been vacated. In case of death, prorated after the room has been vacated.” The administrator reported an addendum for residents with hospice is completed with the admissions agreement indicating that if a resident is receiving hospice services at the time of death there will be no refund. However, R1 or their responsible party did not sign this addendum.
