32 | Regarding the allegation: 1.) Licensee is not addressing pests at the facility. The Department received a complaint alleging that the facility had a cockroach infestation and that the Licensee did not address it. During the initial complaint visit, the LPA conducted a physical plant tour and did not observe cockroaches at the facility. During today’s visit, the LPAs conducted a physical plant tour and inspected kitchen drawers, common areas and bedrooms. The LPAs did not observe any cockroaches or pests. An interview with the Administrator revealed that a pest control company does monthly pest treatment inside and outside of the facility. The Administrator provided the LPAs with the most recent invoice dated 07/08/2025. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not sufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.
2.) Staff is not distributing a resident's medication as prescribed. It was alleged that staff would not properly assist Client #1 (C1) with their self-administration of Magnesium medication and would throw away missed medications. During the initial visit and subsequent visit, the LPA conducted a review of medication and medication documentation and observed that medications were properly documented and assisted as prescribed. Additionally staff interviews denied the allegation of disposing of C1’s Magnesium medication. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not sufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.
3.) Staff are not ensuring that residents are provided with activities while in care. It was alleged that when staff take clients on outings, staff leave clients in the vehicle while staff go shopping for themselves. Interviews conducted with staff denied the allegation. Interview with the Administrator revealed that staff on the weekdays and weekends take clients to go shopping, to go out to eat or to the beach. The Administrator explained that each client enjoys a variety of leisure activities including listening to music and walking around the neighborhood. Additionally, the LPAs observed recent pictures of clients at the beach and at community events and Administrator provided information of future planned outings. Interviews with clients did not note any concerns. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the allegation.
