On 12/19/2023, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Tobola arrived unannounced for the purpose of initiating complaint investigation and was greeted by Program Manager Nell Bunyi. LPA interviewed staff, reviewed video surveillance footage and made observations.

Compliant alleges a facility staff (S6) had violated the personal rights of client (C1). Upon interviews with staff (S1,S2,S3,S4,S5) review of facility video surveillance footage and observations, LPA confirmed that staff S6 had inappropriately responded to client C1's behaviors resulting in S6 hitting C1 on the shoulder for a total of two times. Copy of surveillance footage was acquired. No indications of injury were observed or noted.

Allegation, client personal rights violated is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint is SUBSTANTIATED means that the allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met. The following deficiencies were cited on 9099-D, per Title 22 Regulations, Division 6.
