Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Staff did not provide authorized representative with a written notice of rate increase in a timely manner. R1's Personal Service Plan for the "Alzheimer's" unit states that R1 was moved from assisted living to the Memory Care Unit on 10/7/21. The plan indicates that the facility received "phone approval" from the reporting party on 10/10/20. R1's addendum to the original residency agreement is dated 10/14/20. An email obtained by this analyst confirms that the facility emailed the addendum to the RP on 10/14/20. These records indicate that the facility did not provide the resident’s representative, written notice of the rate increase within two business days after initially providing services at the new level of care. Based on information interviews conducted and records reviewed, this analyst finds the allegation to be SUBSTANTIATED - a finding that means that the allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met. Per California Code of Regulations, Title 22 Division 6, Chapter 8, deficiencies are being cited on the attached 9099-D. Exit interview conducted. Copy of report and appeal rights provided to facility staff.
