The LPA asked the S1 to conduct a count of the pills in each of the bottles for R1, and R2. According to the prescription date on the bottle, number of pills prescribed, and pills remaining in the bottles, the medication is being administered as prescribed by physicians. At 4:05 pm, LPA Urena and S1 conducted a tour of the facility, inside and outside to ensure there are no health and safety hazards, and the facility is in compliance with Title 22 Regulations. Kitchen appliances were in operable condition, knives were locked and out of reach of residents. Bathrooms had paper towels and hand washing signs. Shower had a nonskid pad. Bedrooms had adequate furniture, bedding linens, light, and personal space for each resident. During the tour of the facility, the LPA observed residents walking about the facility, from the bedroom to the common area, and to the bathroom. At 4:15pm, LPA Urena interviewed administrator over the phone. At 4:20pm the LPA interviewed staff and residents. Residents stated that they watch TV during the day. S1 stated that the sleeping medication is administered after dinner. Dinner is between 7:00pm to 7:30pm and medication is administered to the two residents at around 8:00pm. Based on the information obtained, there is insufficient evidence to support the claim that staff gave medication to residents without a physician's prescription order. This allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time. Exit interview conducted. Report was read to Administrator over the phone. Administrator Emma Avetisyan allowed S1 to sign the report. The report was issued.
