complaint·July 12, 2022

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Michelle Reed met with Licensee Nicolas Oudinot to discuss the complaint findings for the above allegation. The investigation consisted of interviews with Administrator, staff and witnesses as well as documentation from the facility. LPA attempted to interview residents but due to their diagnosis and cognitive impairment they could not be interviewed.The following was determined: Resident #1(R1) moved into the facility on 11/19/19. R1 is Non-ambulatory, has Dementia and needs assistance with all Activities of Daily Living. R1 has a tendency to get angry when things do not go her way and will yell, scream and throw things. Staff stated that they redirect R1 when she yells and throws tantrums and R1 has never been physically aggressive and hurt other residents. A review of records disclosed that R1’s behaviors have been brought to the attention of R1’s Doctor’s for solutions. Based upon interviews, the allegation is unsubstantiated, meaning that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur. Licensee was reminded that residents’ should not violate other residents’ rights and that the compatibility of residents’ should always be considered before choosing to accept a resident. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to Licensee Nicolas Oudinot.
