Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

According to interview, S4 stated the facility has gone as long as 2 weeks without proper medications to administer to residents. According records review, LPA observed several occasions whereas residents did not receive medications with annotations of "waiting on pharmacy". According to records review LPA observed residents did not receive medications over a course of weeks at a time. According to interview with S4, there are times when staff schedules do have employees listed on the schedule that are no longer working at the facility. According to interview, it takes 2-3 days for the schedule to be re-created. When this happens and  there is a shift change, there is no one there to pass medications to residents, therefore residents do not receive medications as prescribed which poses a health and safety violation. According to interview with Administrator, the facility is not responsible for transportation to the VA hospital. Administrator is aware of several residents consistently requesting to be transported to the VA hospital. According to interview with R1, R1 requested on several occasions for assistance for transportation to the VA hospital, to no avail. R1 described a health and safety matter of not having an appetite that R1 felt the VA hospital could provide specialized care to help and was denied service to the VA by the facility. According to interview with staff, staff are providing residents with syringes that are the wrong size. According to interview with S2, there is knowledge by the facility staff of untrained staff providing insulin to residents with the wrong size syringe. According to interview with S2, S2 heard that other staff were using the wrong size syringe but did not confirm it with LPA. According to interviews with S4, residents that are confined to wheelchairs are not being tended to in a timely fashion when asking for assistance. S4 stated residents in wheelchairs ask for assistance from staff and staff are too busy filling in for missing staff that there is no time to attend to request of wheelchair residents in a timely fashion. Based on interviews and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegations are found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations (Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8) are being cited on the attached LIC-9099D. Failure to correct the deficiency may result in civil penalties. Appeal rights were provided. An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of the report was provided to Administrator Caleb Summerhays
