Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jason Lund arrived unannounced to complete a complaint investigation regarding the above allegation. LPA Lund met with House Manager Leslie Toral and explained the reason for the visit. Census: 5

Staff transported client(s) in an unsafe manner - LPA Lund reviewed facility records, interviewed reporting parties, facility staff, and residents in care. Based on reviewed facility records, interviewed reporting parties, facility staff, and residents in care. On August 20, 2024, Staff (S1) came to pick up clients from Valley Caps Modesto Day Program. When S1 arrived to pick up the clients to take back to the facility the day program staff believed that S1 was under the influence and refused to let S1 drive the clients back to the facility. Valley Caps Administrator Nathan Ayala called Sunshine Residential Administrator Mary Amoah who came to the day program and pick up the clients and took them back to the facility. On 8/26/2024 S1 was screened through a urine test at drug test Lab in Modesto CA. The screening results were negative for drugs. S1 has since been able to go back to work at the facility.

As a result of this investigation, this Department finds the allegation to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. A complaint allegation finding of Unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.

Exit interview conducted and report left.
