Based on review of R1's autopsy records, R1's cause of death was listed as asphyxiation secondary to food aspiration. It was found that the food fed to R1 was pureed mixture of vegetable and a proteinaceous material while pathologist report states that cause of death was choking, but the manner of death was unknown. Further more, R1 did not sustain or no bruising found on the body to suspect foul play, but there was no way of telling if there was force feeding. Based on the interviews conducted with staff and records review, although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove that the above allegations did or did not occur, therefore the allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED . Exit interview conducted with Administrator, Jona Romuldez and a copy of the report was provided. Page 2 out of 2
