Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Per written notice observed, written notice failed to address general description of the additional costs. LPA spoke with Administrator Dao who reported the rate increase was due to a change in basic service costs. Administrator Dao did not submit written change in Plan of Operation and/or Admission Agreement to the Department prior to providing residents with notice. Regarding the allegation facility unlawfully evicted resident, it was reported Resident 1 (R1)’s responsible party received a text message from Administrator Dao asking them to relocate R1 from the facility due to the facility needing to close. Text message received did not include required written standards as outlined in Eviction Procedures per Title 22 Section 87224. Therefore, based on the preponderance of evidence gathered, the allegations that Facility unlawfully raised resident's rent and Facility unlawfully evicted resident are determined to be Substantiated. The following is being cited per California Code of Regulations Title 22 Division 6 Chapter 8. An exit interview was conducted with Administrator and a copy of this report, LIC9099-D, and appeal rights was provided at the time of exit. During the investigation LPA confirmed rate increases were not specific to one resident but rather provided to multiple residents due to increase utilities, commodities and workforce costs. Although it was confirmed Dao had made multiple attempts to contact resident/ their responsible party documentation provided could not confirm contacts were made with a malicious intent. Therefore, based on the preponderance of evidence gathered, the allegations that Facility Administrator is retaliating against Resident is UNSUBSTANTIATED, meaning that although the allegation may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. This agency has investigated this complaint. An exit interview was conducted with Administrator and a copy of this report was provided at the time of exit.
