Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

On 07/08/2021, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jaime Vado conducted an unannounced case management inspection in response to an unusual incident report that the facility had self-reported regarding a resident who is unable to leave the facility unassisted. Today, LPA interviewed administrator Juliet Pacaldo and staff person Tess regarding the incident. The caregiver who witnessed the elopement was not present on this day. Pertinent documents received via email were reviewed regarding the resident. Although the resident does not have dementia he is not allowed to leave the facility unassisted due to his mental status according to physician paperwork received. LPA toured the facility and observed the location of the room of R1 and the door he exited from. The door is alarmed but it was unclear if it was operational at the time of the elopement. Staff were present on the day of the elopement and he was discovered as not in his room during regular room checks. Deficiency of the RCFE California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8 is observed and cited on a following page. Report is reviewed with licensee Juliet. Appeal rights given.
