Licensing Program Analyst Leibert made contact with Administrator Charito Santos for the purpose of delivering findings on the above - captioned complaint. The visit was conducted via tele-visit due to COVID - 19 precautions. The complaint suggests that R1 was not provided assistance with basic care needs in that it is alleged that R1 was observed by medical personnel to have feces on pants and on fingers suggesting staff neglect. This Department has investigated the allegation by interviewing witnesses and reviewing and obtaining records. The following determinations have been made: R1 was admitted to a medical facility on or about 4/8/20; Complainant and witness (W1) report having heard from unnamed sources that when R1 was admitted R1 was observed to have been neglected in R1's hygiene; Neither reporter had any first hand observations of R1 and were not able to provide names or other means of identification of those who may have observed the alleged neglect; The medical records obtained from the medical facility are silent on the issue and make no mention of R1's hygiene or related comments that might support the allegation. 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.
