Interview with Executive Director (ED), Ricky David, conducted on 6/9/2022 indicated that resident (R1) lived in an apartment on the third floor of the facility, which is designated specifically for independent living and not licensed by Community Care Licensing. ED indicated that no one on the third floor of the facility receives care and supervision. The Department reviewed R1’s “Independent Living Resident and Services” lease agreement. Agreement states “You have applied to receive accommodations and services in the unlicensed portion of Cogir of Stock Ranch and we have accepted your application.” The agreement states under “Excluded Services” that “We shall not be responsible for furnishing or paying for any of your assisted living (personal care) nursing, or health care needs, including but not limited to acute care; assistance with the tasks of daily living; the services of private duty aides, physicians, and nurses; medications; and other items and services that may require a license to provide.” The agreement also states under “You Capacity for Residential Apartment Living” that “The Residential Housing portion of Cogir of Stock Ranch is not licensed to offer and does not offer assistance with medications, bathing, dressing, mobility needs, supervision, monitoring of your health or safety, or other personal care activities. It is your responsibility to provide for your own health care and personal care needs so long as you reside in Residential Housing. You represent to us that you are capable of providing for your own health care and personal care needs and will provide for all such needs for as long as you reside in Residential Housing.” Based on interviews conducted by the Department and records reviewed, the Department determines that the Community Care Licensing Division does not have investigation authority regarding residents who reside in the independent living section located on the third floor of the facility as long as the third floor of the facility operates as an independent living, only provides residential housing without care and supervision, and does not admit residents in need of care and supervision to the third floor. Therefore, the above allegation is found to be UNFOUNDED. Exit interview was conducted with Business Office Coordinator and a copy of this report was provided to the facility. The signature of the Business Office Coordinator on these forms acknowledges receipt of these documents.
