told her that R2 did not have any belongings at the facility. V8 stated she had been in contact with V4 and
V4 stated that he would follow up with V8 regarding R2's missing belongings. V8 stated it had been weeks
since she heard anything so she contacted V1 (Assistant Administrator) and told V1 about R2's missing
belongings. V8 stated that R2 informed her that R2 just received his $49 dollars last night after waiting over
a month to receive it. V8 stated that she was informed by R2 that someone from the facility dropped R2's
money off at R2's current nursing home residence but R2 is unaware of who dropped off his money to him.
V8 stated that R2 signed his name that he received his money. V8 stated R2 is still missing items that was
ordered online by V8 and other family members. V8 stated R2 is missing a box with multiple bags of
snacking chips, 4 pairs of reading glasses, and 2 large print books. V8 stated another family member

items and show proof of those receipts before the facility will reimburse V8. V8 stated she does not agree
with that decision. V8 states that she is familiar with how the long-term care process works. V8 states when

On 09/30/2023 at 3:00PM, V9 (Environmental Services Director) stated she has been working at the facility
for 31 years. V9 stated the protocol when a resident is discharged to the hospital is the staff will first
disinfect the room. If the admission department informs us that a resident will not be returning to the facility,
then we are instructed to put the resident belongings in storage. I was made aware that R2 was not coming
back to the facility by V10 (Admissions Director). V10 informed me of this information about 5-7 days after
R2 was hospitalized . An inventory of R2's belongings was not made when R2 went out to the hospital.
Once I was made aware, I went into R2's room with V13 (Laundry Aide) about 5-7 days after R2 went out to
the hospital. There were other housekeeping staff assigned to clean R2's room when R2 was in the
hospital. I asked them have they seen any of R2's belongings and they have not seen them either. V13 and
I both went into R2's room together. V13 stated to me that she searched the laundry room for R2's
belongings and did not find any belongings for R2. Myself and V13 searched R2's room for any other
belongings, we checked everything inside of R2's room and even the drawers but we did not see any of
R2's belongings. There was nothing. I do remember seeing R2 with some glasses, they were big glasses.
When we started looking for R2's belongings. I checked the storage room and there was nothing. If there is
nothing found in the resident's room, then there is nothing to be filled out. If there are items found in a
resident's room, then we fill out an inventory form that documents the resident's name, the date, and the
items found. Myself, V13, and V1 all searched the storage room in hopes of finding R2's belongings. The
storage room is located on the first floor of the facility. The housekeeping staff has access to and shares
one key to the storage room. The CNAs are responsible for obtaining an inventory list of all the resident's
belongings upon admission and discharge. We also tell residents and their family to let us know if they bring
in or purchase new items for the resident so that we can update the resident's inventory list.
On 09/30/203 at 1:55 PM, V3 (Social Services Director) stated I gave R2 an envelope to put his money in
before R2 was going out to the hospital so that R2 could take his money with him. R2 left the envelop at the
facility when he went out to the hospital. I am not aware of any other missing belongings that R2 had, I only
know about the money.
On 09/30/203 at 2:29PM, V2 (Director of Nursing/DON) presented R2's resident belongings log dated
04/13/2023. R2's resident belonging log documents 1 pair of glasses and $8 in cash.
On 10/01/2023 at 9:21 AM V10 (Admissions Director) stated I was made aware of R2's missing items by
the nursing and housekeeping staff. I was informed that R2 had some money, books, and glasses, and
some clothes. I observed R2's inventory list when R2 was discharged from the facility. I saw the items on
the list that R2's family was inquiring about. I saw this inventory list probably less than a week after R2 was
sent to the hospital. To my knowledge, the housekeeping staff packed up all of R2's belongings and it
should be in the storage room. I did not see R2's items and belongings but I did see the actual inventory
list. This list is kept in the resident's chart. I have seen this inventory list in R2's medical chart, it is in there.
When a resident is not returning back to the facility, I always tell the housekeeping staff to search the
resident's room. I instruct the housekeeping staff to pack the resident's belongings because I know that the
family will need them. I was informed that V1 (Assistant Administrator) addressed the concerns with R2's
missing money and R2's money was returned and dropped off to R2 by V3 (Social Services Director).
On 10/01/2023 at approximately 2:15 PM, Surveyor requested an inventory list of R2's belongings upon
discharge from V2 (Director of Nursing). R2's discharge inventory list was not provided to surveyor. There
was no documentation presented during this survey to show that R2's belongings were inventoried after
R2's discharge from the facility.
