The Administrator stated the activities on 12/3/21 & 12/10/21 did not happen based on the activity directors schedule, they were off on Fridays, and he does not know if another staff provided the activities; The Administrator stated he does not know if activities were held on 12/14/21 and he does not have any records on activities but the calendar with scheduled activities listed. LPA observed that 1/14/22 is also a Friday. The Administrator stated that the activity may have been changed to just count the day the pet dog is brought into the building to visit with residents but the Administrator had no documentation to show any activity changes made to the calendar, and per interview(s) no residents have received any updated record and/or calendar of activity changes being made to the schedule. No updates to the schedule and/or changes, nothing could be provided to the LPA from the Administrator in regards to the activity schedule/calendar. LPA reviewed the planned activities regulation 87219, with the Administrator. The Administrator stated that he would be instituting a document to be used by the Activity Director and activity staff, to document activity information as needed and required per regulation.

Per LPA interview(s), record reviews, there was no facility supportive documentation to show activities were provided as scheduled on the specified days and time and/or documentation of any changes to the activity schedule. The LPA reviewed a declaration from an Agency staff person that was received by CCL, this Agency staff was on-site at the facility and observed no activities being held the morning of 12/3/21, 12/10,21, 12/1421, and 1/14/21 as scheduled on the am activity calendar.
Based on LPA interviews, and review of information obtained, the investigation has revealed that the allegation of "no activities being provided to memory care residents" on the specified days in this report, has been Substantiated.

Due to the substantiation of the allegation, a citation, 87219(a)(f), will be cited today-see LIC9099D.
The preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8), is being cited.
Appeal Rights Given.
