Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

During interviews with the residents, six (6) out of eight (8) did not corroborate the allegation. During an interview with R1, they stated that they were not being provided their medications by staff in the days leading up to their medical emergency, and they have since had their significant other assisting them with medication management. Other residents interviewed stated that they have not had issues with receiving their medications from staff as prescribed by their physicians. During interviews with the staff, five (5) out of five (5) did not corroborate the allegation. One of the staff interviewed stated that they were not aware of any instances in which medications were not passed to R1, and that the significant other of R1 now handles their medications so the facility only has the MAR for R1. During review of the MAR, LPA observed that it was documented that on 12/3/2024 and 12/4/2024, it was logged that S2 had distributed R1 their medications. During an interview with S2, they stated that on these dates that they had given R1 their required medications and observed R1 taking the medications. LPA was not able to inspect the medication for R1 because their medications are with their significant other. Based on statements and interviews conducted with staff, clients, review of client files and facility file records, there was not enough supportive evidence to concur with the reported allegations. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED . Exit interview held, and a copy of this report was provided.
