Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Stephanie Torres, conducted an unannounced visit to the facility to address concerns observed during the investigation of complaint #18-AS-20220729163748. The LPA met with Administrator, Thomas Uata, and informed him of the purpose of the visit. During the visit the LPA observed the following concerns: Uata was not able to locate the files for the residents in care, and required the assistance of Staff One (S1) to locate the files; the file for Resident Four (R4) could not be found and could not be reviewed by the LPA; a review of R1's Physician's Report for Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly (RCFE) revealed a resident, who requires an annual medical assessment, was last evaluated on August 25, 2020; no copy of the staff schedule was available for review; per Uata, no Absentee Notification Plan (AB 620) was established following discussion of the plan with LPA, Jesse Gardner. Administrator Uata has shown he is not operating the facility in compliance with regulatory requirements. Therefore, a citation will be issued. An exit interview was conducted; this report was reviewed with Uata and a copy was provided, along with LIC 811 and Appeal Rights.
