Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Emergency Department Records indicate R1’s diagnoses are Transient Cerebral Ischemia (TIA) and Right Foot Contusion. During interview, Staff 1 (S1) denied hearing R1 slur her words and was only concerned about R1 falling more often. S1 stated that R1's family is responsible in taking R1 to the doctor. S1 also stated that R1 has not seen a doctor since moving to the facility on January 31, 2019. Based on the Department's observations, interviews which were conducted and record reviews, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be substantiated. California Code of Regulations, Title 22 is being cited on the attached LIC 9099D. A $500.00 immediate civil penalty is assessed on this day. Civil penalty determination related to serious bodily injury is pending. Exit interview conducted. Appeal Rights and a copy of this report provided. 2. Resident's toileting needs were not met On May 19, 2021, LPA Luisa Fontanilla interviewed Staff 1. S1 is the primary caregiver for R1. S1 states that R1 had a schedule to address incontinence needs. S1 states R1 gets reminded and escorted to go to the bathroom every two hours or as needed during the day until 1am. After 1am, the next bathroom reminder/escort is at 7am. In one of the photos obtained during investigation, a sign indicating bathroom schedule was observed on R1’s door. Based on interviews and observations, the above allegations are unsubstantiated. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation(s) did or did not occur. Exit interview conducted and a copy of this report provided.
