On 12/11/2025, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Arielle Pascua and Jason Lund arrived unannounced to this facility to deliver complaint findings. LPAs were greeted by Facility Designated Representative (FDR), Nicolette Taylor and explained the purpose of the visit. The purpose of the visit was deliver complaint findings for the allegations above.

Current census was 3. A brief interview with FDA Taylor was conducted.

It was alleged that facility staff are not meeting residents needs. During the course of this investigation, LPA reviewed recordings and conducted interviews. Based on the review of video recordings, LPA Pascua could hear an individual screaming and shouting outside the facility; however, the footage did not clearly show whether staff were present or assisting the resident at that time. Interviews were conducted with three staff members, all of whom denied being unable to meet residents’ needs or mitigate behaviors.

Two residents were also interviewed and both stated that staff are able to assist them. Additionally, interviews with two Valley Mountain Regional Center Service Coordinators were conducted, and both reported that facility staff are meeting residents’ needs and expressed no concerns. Based on the information gathered, there is not sufficient evidence to prove that the facility staff are not meeting residents needs.

As a result of this investigation, this Department found the allegations to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. A complaint allegation finding of Unsubstantiated meant that although the allegations may have happened or was valid, there was not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.
An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to the facility at the end of this visit.
