What the inspector wrote

LPA obtained and reviewed the maintenance record and confirmed the air conditioner repair. Based on interviews conducted and records review, the Department’s investigation provided enough information to corroborate the allegation that facility did not maintain a safe vehicle for clients in care.

An exit interview was conducted where a copy of this report was provided along with LIC9099D, and Appeal Rights were provided. R1 asked to be relocated to the newly renovated room, but the facility management denied R1’s request by stating that the room was reserved for a resident with a private residence agreement. LPA conducted interviews with the Administrator and Director of Nursing, both of whom stated that no residents had been promised any specific rooms. Rooms are assigned upon availability. R1 is a resident who is under a special program that requires a shared room. The room that R1 had requested is a private residence, not a shared room. LPA conducted records review and verified the statements from the Administrator and Director of Nursing. LPA conducted interviews with eight (8) residents, all of whom stated that staff members have treated residents with respect.
