Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Angela Panushkina, conducted a case management, in conjunction to a complaint investigation, with control number 31-AS-20220210104450. During the investigation, it was revealed that two deaths occurred at the facility on 09/07/21 and 01/28/22, and the facility did not submit any Death Reports to Licensing agency. LPA spoke with the Administrator over the phone and the Administrator could not provide an explanation as to why the Death Reports were not sent to Licensing agency. Administrator asked to contact the facility Licensee, Walditrudez Lopez, for more information.

LPA expressed the concern of not reporting incidents to Licensing agency and requested both reports to be submitted to Community Care Licensing Department (CCLD) promptly. This is a potential health and safety risk to residents in care. Citation issued, and copy of this report was emailed to the Administrator, Virgilio Lopez
