Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Tobola conducted a visit to deliver complaint investigation findings and met with Administrator Siobhan Lehman. LPA toured the facility, reviewed facility files and interviewed staff and outside parties.

The complaint alleges staff did not follow physician's orders regarding medication administration. Based on a review of resident R1's Centrally Stored Medication Records LPA found that R1 was prescribed a laxative medication to be administered daily for stool softening as of December 2020. However, LPA confirmed that R1's Physician had sent a discontinuation order for the prescribed laxative to be changed to a PRN on 2/19/2021. LPA found that the discontinue order was not carried out by staff and the laxative was administered to R1 on 2/20/2021 against Physician's orders. Based on facility not following Physician's medication orders for R1 the allegation is SUBSTANTIATED.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Tobola conducted a visit to deliver complaint investigation findings and met with Administrator Siobhan Lehman. LPA toured the facility, reviewed facility files and interviewed staff and outside parties.

Complaint alleges staff did not ensure changes in resident's condition were being reported to a physician in a timely manner. Based on interviews with staff and outside parties and a review of faciltiy records LPA found that the facility records Narrative Charts for any resident changes of condition. LPA reviewed R1's Narrative Chart and found that the facility staff notify R1's responsible party and Physician of R1's changes of condition. However, due to conflicting information and statements received the allegation is found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED.

A finding that the complaint allegations staff did not ensure changes in resident's condition were reported to a physician in a timely manner is unsubstantiated meaning that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. Appeal Rights Given.

Complaint alleges resident was not accorded dignity regarding continence care products not being changed in a timely manner. Based on interviews with staff, outside parties and residents LPA found that resident R1 has been left in soiled continence care products on several occasions. R1 requested for staff to change their soiled continence care products but was not changed for several hours. Based on staff leaving R1 in soiled continence care products on several occasions without changing R1 in a timely manner, the allegation is SUBSTANTIATED.

A finding that the staff did not follow physician's orders and resident was not accorded dignity regarding continence care products not being changed in a timely manner are substantiated meaning that the allegations are valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met.

Deficiencies cited from the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6 of California Regulation. Failure to correct the deficiency and/or repeat deficiencies within a 12-month period may result in civil penalties.
