Licensee Program Analyst (LPA), Stephanie Torres, conducted an unannounced visit to the facility to obtain information on the current status of the home. The Department received information indicating the Licensee has failed to make rental payments, which has resulted in a pending eviction. The LPA was greeted by staff, Leo Cardenas, and informed him of the purpose of the visit. The LPA spoke with Licensee, Dulce Redford, via telephone and informed her of the purpose of the visit. On this visit the LPA toured the facility, observed three (3) residents in care, sufficient food supplies, working utilities, and staff available. No health and safety concerns were observed on this visit. No citations have been issued at this time. The LPA informed Licensee Redford the health, safety and personal rights of the residents in care are jeopardized when rental payments are not made and a possible eviction is pending. Redford was advised to maintain good communication with the Department in order to remain updated on the status of the facility. This report was reviewed with Redford via telephone and a hard copy was provided.
