Director signed the form on 09/10/25. During an interview and record review on 09/25/25 at 9:56 AM, with
Activities Director revealed she wrote a Grievance Report for Resident #2, regarding the resident's concern
that activities were done in Spanish. She said she had a communication barrier, because she could only
speak little English and the resident did not speak Spanish. She said she had explained to the resident,
there were three other residents at the facility who only spoke English, and they attended activities. She
said the resident wanted to know why all activities were done in Spanish. She said the nurse on the fourth
floor had assisted her in translating and explaining to Resident #2 that the monthly activities are scheduled
according to the special holidays celebrated on a particular month and in September they celebrated the
independence of Mexico. She said Resident #2 showed no interest to associate with other
English-speaking residents because they were not Jewish. She said they offered activities, and she
refused. The Activities Director stated she had documented a note on the back of the grievance form. The
note reflected resident is a little confused by their requests, she assumes that the problem is that the
activities are mostly done in Spanish, it was explained to her that this is because almost all the residents
speak Spanish but the group can still be included and it will be explained in English to her and to three
other residents who only speak English and who do participate in activities but she doesn't want to. She
doesn't want to do in-room activities because she wants to be private in her room, but she also doesn't
want to go to the dining room with other residents. She says she likes chess and was offered to socialize
with the people who speak English. She said yes, but she didn't want to be bothered. And she started
talking about financial matters to be here in the building. I think she can't adapt and wants things done that
are difficult to understand, not because of the language, but because of her needs. During an interview on
09/25/25 at 10:42 AM, with Maintenance Assistant revealed the televisions were not programmed to only
see Spanish channels. He said they provided cable services to all the residents, and they had access to
sixty-five channels. He said that he was not aware of any residents having issues with the TV channels. He
said he had not assisted in resolving any concerns related to televisions. During an interview on 09/25/25 at
10:44 AM the Maintenance Director revealed he had been employed at the facility for five months. He said
they did not have compatible remotes for Resident #2's TV, and she was only able to use subscription
entertainment. He said he did not know the name of the contracted cable company and was waiting for the
Administrator to provide him with the information for the cable company to come and check Resident #2's
cable connection. He said, the Administrator gave a universal remote to Resident #2 that was when I found
out there was no cable service in that room. He said Resident #2's television worked but only accessed
Spanish channels. He said the resident informed him,
