Incident investigation·August 21, 2024

At 12:45 PM, on 08/21/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Huma Rahimi conducted an unannounced case management visit to this facility. LPA met with the staff who granted access to the facility. The Administrator was contacted and LPA disclosed the reason for the visit. Administrator arrived at the facility shortly after. The Administrator had to leave and designated the staff to sign today's report on their behalf. Today’s case management visit is to follow up on an incident previously reported on 08/15/2024, stating that R1 left the facility unassisted on 08/14/2024, at around 4:00 AM. LPA conducted an interview with the Administrator and LPA was informed that the Los Angeles Police Department/911 was notified on 08/15/2024, at 10:27AM, and reported missing person. However, when the police came Administrator informed the police that R1 was previously served with an eviction notice on 07/28/2024. The Regional Office did receive an eviction letter on 07/31/2024, but it was determined unlawful because the Administrative did not provide supportive documents. Review of R1's physician's report date on 05/26/2021, revealed that R1 was diagnosed with dementia and was not able to leave the facility unassisted. In addition, Administrator failed to obtain a new physician's report for R1 for the past three years. Based on the interview and file review of R1 deficiencies will be cited on LIC 809D. Appeal rights explained. Exit interview conducted. Copy of report provided.
