Complaint·November 9, 2024

Allegation were made that the facility is not quarantining residents who test positive for COVID-19. The investigation included a review of records and interviews with residents and staff. The facility's Mitigation Plan, dated January 14, 2021, was also reviewed and is within the CDC guidelines. LPA Lee interviewed all 7 residents, none of whom expressed concerns about the facility's quarantine practices for COVID-19 positive residents. Residents indicated that those who test positive are required to quarantine in their rooms. Additionally, LPA Lee spoke with all 3 staff members, who confirmed that the facility adheres to CDC guidelines and denied the allegation. Based on the interviews and evidence collected during the investigation, LPA Lee was unable to corroborate the allegation that facility is not quarantining residents who test positive for COVID-19. The investigation revealed the preponderance of evidence standards have not been met; therefore, the above allegations are found to be UNSUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint allegations are UNSUBSTANTIATED means that although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation(s)occurred.
