25 | While at the facility, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Martha Guzman Chavez initiated a Case Management – Deficiencies visit. Licensee Richard Carino was present for the duration of the visit. Previously, LPA Kelly Dulek had observed deficiencies and those deficiencies are now being addressed during this visit.
On 05/18/2020, LPA Dulek had reviewed Client #1 (C1)’s daily care notes from the time period of 02/01/2020 – 04/21/2020. Upon review of these records, LPA noted nine (9) different occasions where C1 engaged in aggressive behavior, harming themselves, staff, or destroying property. LPA also noted eight (8) times C1 eloped from the facility, one (1) hospital visit, one (1) incident of self-harm, and on two (2) occasions, C1 made accusations of abuse against the facility staff. Upon review, none of these incidents were reported to the Regional Office. During a Zoom meeting that took place on 06/17/2020, Administrators Christian Carino and Richard Carino confirmed these incidents were not reported. Additionally, another incident was brought up that was not documented in C1’s daily notes, nor reported to CCL or Tri-Counties Regional Center (TCRC) involving C1 attempting to run into the street into oncoming traffic. During this incident, Staff #1 (S1) held C1 in a bear hug.
During the 06/17/2020 Zoom meeting, CCL and TCRC discussed with Administrators training facility staff in safe intervention techniques. Administrators acknowledged understanding of reporting requirements and ongoing staff training needs at that time.
The following deficiencies were observed (See LIC 809-D.) and cited from the California Code of Regulations, Title 22 and California Health and Safety Code. Exit interview conducted. A copy of the report and appeal rights were provided.
