Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Cynthia Chan conducted a case management visit to issue additional deficiencies. LPA met with the Executive Director – Tomoko Hino, to discuss the purpose of this visit. During the complaint investigation 28-AS-20250521082826, it was discovered that R-1 had multiple falls and/or being found on the floor between September 2024 through April 2025. A total of (11) known incidents occurred, however, the facility provided reports for the falls on 10/9/24 and 4/20/25. Therefore, the facility failed to submit written reports to licensing for all of R-1’s fall related incidents. In addition, during the same complaint investigation, R-1’s bedroom had a video surveillance monitor. During the visit today, staff noted that some residents’ rooms have video surveillance. The Executive Director is unsure if a written waiver was provided to licensing regarding the monitors in the residents’ rooms. Deficiencies are being issued today on the LIC809D. An exit interview was held. A copy of this report along with appeal rights were given to the Executive Director.
