It was alleged that the facility had Insufficient staffing. The complainant alleges that there were not enough staff on duty to support the residents needs in memory care. LPA reviewed facility time sheets and schedules for the week of 8/30-9/5/2020, interviewed staff and reviewed resident records. Per the Administrator, Assisted Living Staff are able to assist memory care staff when a need arises. Based on interviews and a review of facility records, LPA Walters was unable to determine that there was insufficient staffing therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

It was also alleged that the- Facility failed to report to licensing agency. The complainant alleges that the facility was not reporting reportable incidents to to Community Care Licensing. Based on a review of incident reports provided by the facility, Resident Care plans and charting notes.

The complainant alleges: Facility failed to observe changes and that Facility failed to report observed change of condition. More specifically the complainant alleges that the facility has failed to observe changes in R1 and that Staff then failed to report changes in R1's status to their physcian.
