Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Sabel Martinez conducted an unannounced Case Management visit to cite deficiencies discovered during a complaint investigation. The LPA introduced himself and disclosed the purpose of the visit to Caregiver Veronica Naranjo. Interviews, along with observations by the LPA, revealed the facility had used cannabis oil, and dried cannabis leaves to make teas for residents in care. The Cannabis oil was stored in the kitchen area in an unlocked location. Additionally, the Cannabis oil did not have the required labels. Prescribed Cannabis Gummies were also witnessed to be stored in the kitchen area in an unlocked location. These deficiencies were cited in an LIC 809D, and a Plan of Correction was jointly formulated with Administrator Pineda, over a telephone call. An exit interview was conducted with Naranjo, to whom a copy of this report, LIC 809D, and Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC 9058), were provided
