LPA Arnhold toured one of the buildings outside of the home that is the Administrators personal space; It was observed that there was a key pad lock and it was locked and inaccessible to residents in care. Administrator stated that they store their pellet guns/air rifle guns in this space, but Administrator was not able to find them during the inspecetion. Administrator stated that the pellet/air rifle guns are used because of the gopher problem in the large yard. Staff, S3, was with Administrator's family members, young adults, instructing them on pellet/air rifle gun safety in using them, and was practicing shooting them. S1, S2, and S3 stated that no residents were in the vicinity when S3 was instructing the young adults with the pellet/air rifle use.

LPAs didn't observe any air guns/pellet guns during the inspection. LPA's were informed by Administrator that law enforcement came to the facility due to the report of people with guns. The law enforcement officer said there were no issues because they were shooting in a safe direction on their own property. There was no information obtained to support a violation had occurred regarding the allegations.

Based on the interviews and related information obtained during the investigation, the allegations of "young adults playing with firearms in the backyard, and adults yelling and screaming out front of the facility" is Unsubstantiated, meaning that although the allegations may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur.

No deficiencies cited.
Exit interview was conducted with the Administrator Pia Baroni.
