This report is being amended to generate a new LIC9099 to issue the citation under the correction regulation. The new LIC9099 dating on 02/11/2026, will supersede this LIC9099.
On 10/09/2025, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Arielle Pascua and Shakaricka Hughes arrived unannounced to this facility to conduct a complaint visit. LPA met with Staff Members (SM), Nicolette Taylor and Carlette Sharpe and explained the purpose of the visit. LPA Pascua asked for SM Taylor to contact the Facility Designated Administrator (FDA), Iboni James that CCL was present. Shortly after, SM Kenroy Anderson arrived and left 5 minutes later. LPA Pascua spoke with FDA James who appointed SM Taylor as her representative in her absence.
Current census was 4. 2 out 4 residents were out of the facility at this time.
Based on interviews conducted, it was learned that S1 was present at the facility in the morning. In addition, interviews revealed that S1 is present at the facility often throughout the week. LPA Pascua reviewed the Licensing Information System and Guardian System and observed through review of these records that S1 was not associated to this facility. Based on the information gathered, there was an uncleared staff member present at the facility.
