Additionally, facility is under Stipulation and Order and Waiver (Stip) as of 6/30/22. As a requirement of the Stipulation and Waiver; and Order dated July 18, 2022, page four (4), line items 26-27 and page five (5), line items 1-5, each Memory Care unit and Assisted Living unit will be staffed independently such that the units do not share direct care staff. The medication tech will not be a direct care staff but may provide support/backup when not distributing medication…and staff breaks and lunch shall be staggered so there is adequate staff coverage.
LPAs review of staffing schedule for 5/6/25 shows that there are two (2) direct care staff scheduled for day shift for MC1, with one Med Tech present. However, both the Med Tech and one of the direct care staff are scheduled to take lunch at the same time, 10:00am, leaving only one direct care staff on duty during the lunch break. LPA review of staffing schedule for 5/6/25 shows that there is one (1) direct care staff scheduled for day shift for MC2, with one Med Tech present. However, both the Med Tech and the one (1) direct care staff are scheduled to take lunch at the same time, 10:30am.
During investigation, LPAs reviewed resident roster indicating which residents require a two-person assist. Review of roster indicates there are three (3) residents (R1, R2, and R3) in MC1 that require a two-person assist and one (1) resident (R4) in MC2 that requires a two-person assist. So, based on the care needs of residents, facility is found to be out of compliance with the Stip.
Based on LPAs’ record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6 Chapter 8, are being cited on the attached 9099D.
Deficiencies are cited from the California Code of Regulations (CCRs), and/or the Health and Safety Code. Failure to correct the cited deficiency, on or before the Plan of Correction (POC) due date, may result in a civil penalty assessment.
Exit interview conducted. Copy of report, LIC-9099D, Plan of Corrections, 811 Confidential Names and Appeal Rights discussed and provided to Administrator Rodriguez. Signature on form confirms receipt of documents.
