13 | At approximately 09:30AM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Ali Deniz arrived unannounced to continue a complaint Investigation and delivered the findings regarding the above allegation and met with Administrator, Tedra Godfrey.
During the course of the investigation, the Department requested and reviewed documents, conducted interviews, and made observations. The following allegation was investigated, “Lack of adequate staffing resulted in resident care needs not being met.”
The complaint alleged that Resident 1 (R1) sustained multiple unwitnessed falls, bruises, and a possible heel wound while residing at the facility, and that inadequate staffing may have contributed to unmet care needs.
LPA interviewed the Administrator and caregiver staff, who confirmed R1 had several falls, and that Special Incident Reports (SIRs) were submitted. R1 was described as independently mobile and on blood thinners, which may have contributed to bruising. A full body assessment was completed upon admission, and staff denied observing any heel wounds or unmet care needs during R1’s stay.
