Follow-up·November 21, 2024

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elizabeth Irra conducted an unannounced Case Management visit. LPA met with Eadgitha "Jody" Manalad/S-1 and discussed the purpose of today's visit. The purpose of today's visit is to follow up an incident involving C-1 and C-2. It was alleged that C-1 attempted to "smother" C-2 and that C-1 stole C-2's belongings. During this visit, LPA obtained a copy of the staff and client rosters, reviewed and obtained documentation from Client #1 (C-1) and Client #2 (C-2) files, interviewed C-1 and C-2, interviewed Staff #1 (S-1) through Staff #3 (S-3) and interviewed the Quality Assurance Representative from Harbor Regional Center. LPA was unable to interview Client #3 (C-3) due to a language barrier. Staff interviews and reviewed documentation revealed that C-1 has a history of fabricating stories. Interviewed staff indicated that they have not received any complaints pertaining to this allegation. C-2 denies this incident. No deficiencies cited as there was not enough evidence to support the allegation. Exit interview conducted and a copy of this report was provided to Eadgitha "Jody" Manalad/S-1.
