Continued on LIC9099-C page... Unsubstantiated Interviews with residents did not reveal any concerns regarding the meals provided by the facility. Residents and staff stated that meals could also be delivered to resident rooms or picked up at the dining room, if residents wanted to eat in their apartments. Interviews with staff stated that if residents were observed to be feeling ill or seemed to be isolating in their apartments, staff would ensure that residents were eating and would order meals for delivery. Interviews with staff denied any concerns that any residents, including R1, were not eating meals. Review of R1’s assessment records dated 2023 and 2025 revealed that R1 was independent for most activities of daily living, including ensuring access to meals. Assessment records also stated that R1 occasionally required escorting to activities and meals if R1’s spouse was not present. Multiple residents denied any concerns regarding staff interactions and stated that staff were pleasant, wonderful, and responsive to care needs and pendant calls. Some resident interviews did allege that staff were rude or disrespectful, however those interviews did not provide specific details on how staff were rude or disrespectful when asked to clarify. Interviews with staff did not reveal any instances of staff responding to residents in a rude, disrespectful, or inappropriate manner, and staff stated that they would remove themselves from the situation to allow the resident to calm down. The Department did not obtain any evidence that the facility management were notified of any allegations of staff rudeness or disrespect.

R1’s spouse also provided occasional assistance to R1, including escorting and medication management. Interviews and assessments revealed that the facility was not responsible for managing R1’s medications. Staff interviews revealed that all residents were reassessed every 6 months to ensure that residents’ care needs had not changed, and R1 was reassessed in late 2025, and remained independent for medication management. Interviews with staff did not reveal any concerns that R1 was not receiving their medications as prescribed or was not receiving appropriate level of care from R1’s spouse or facility staff. The Department has investigated the above-mentioned allegations and based on interviews and records review, the preponderance of the evidence has not been met, therefore, these allegations are deemed unsubstantiated.

During today’s visit, LPA observed residents in care and interviewed staff.

Continued on LIC9099-C page... Unsubstantiated Review of resident records revealed that some residents received a written 90-day notice in May 2025 which stated that the basic rate of service would be increase effective September 1, 2025, which was a notice period of over 90 days. Interviews with residents revealed that the facility issued rate increases annually, usually on the anniversary of the resident’s move in date and advance notice was provided via written notice. Those interviews also revealed that the notice was generally provided at least 3 months prior to the rate increase taking effect. Interviews with staff revealed that rate increases were assessed on the anniversary date of the resident’s move-in, which was supported by information provided by residents. Interviews with staff responsible for handling resident billing revealed that residents were notified of the annual rate increase via written letter that was placed in their mailbox at the facility. Staff did not provide any evidence that the written notices were provided to residents less than 90 days prior to the notice taking effect. Interviews with staff and facility management revealed that facility policy stated that staff would try to encourage residents to take their medications multiple times before noting the resident refusal, and would also try having a different staff member administer the medication or provide care. Interviews with staff supported this policy and provided evidence that staff would attempt to provide care or administer medications to R1 multiple times. Interviews with staff reported some difficulty with providing care and administering medications for R1 due to R1’s occasional resistance to care. Staff reported that R1 would often refuse medications and care if the medication or care was not provided immediately when R1 wanted to receive the care. R1 stated during interviews that staff confused R1’s medications, however, R1 did not provide clarification on the confusion or if R1 had ever received incorrect medications. Facility progress notes for R1 revealed that R1 stated that they were refusing because they no longer needed that medication. Interviews with staff and review of facility communication to R1’s physician revealed that R1 refused to take multiple medications and supplements, including a heart medication. These communications revealed that R1’s physician agreed with discontinuing other medications that R1 refused but did not agree to discontinue R1’s heart medication. R1’s medication administration records for July and August supported interview evidence that R1 often refused medications. Continued on LIC9099-C page...

Staff denied responding to any residents with anger and stated that they would leave and attempt to provide care after a short period of time to allow the resident to calm down.

Additionally, staff were instructed to conduct skin checks during incontinence and hygiene care. Staff reported some difficulty with providing care for R1 due to R1’s occasional resistance to care. Review of progress notes and staff interviews revealed that R1 developed a rash while in care, but the evidence collected did not support the allegation that the rash was an early pressure injury. Review of R1’s medication administration records showed that R1 would often refuse an ointment prescribed to treat their rash. Interviews with staff did not reveal any evidence that R1 developed a pressure injury at the facility and R1 denied the allegation that they developed a pressure injury while in care at the facility.

It was alleged that the licensee unlawfully evicted Residents 1 and 2 (R1 and R2). Interviews with staff and R1, as well as review of R1 and R2's admission agreement signed May 2025 revealed that R1 and R2 moved into the facility on 5/15/2025 under a respite stay of approximately one month. Continued on LIC9099-C page... Substantiated Interviews with staff revealed that facility management received multiple complaints from residents and staff regarding R1 and R2's behavior and comments. Interviews with staff revealed that R1 and R2 made multiple comments that residents felt were inappropriate, abrasive, and judgmental. Interviews with staff and R1 revealed that on 5/26/2025, the Executive Director spoke with R1 and R2 regarding their behavior and stated that their respite stay would need to be shortened and that R1 and R2 would need to leave the facility. Review of R1 and R2's admission agreement signed May 2025 revealed that residents could only be evicted from the facility via a written 30-day notice or a written 3-day notice with prior Department approval. The Executive Director confirmed in interviews that a written 30-day notice was not issued to R1 or R2 at any time. Review of documents received by the Department from the facility confirmed that a 3-day eviction notice was also not requested. Interviews confirmed that R1 and R2 vacated their apartment on 5/26/2025. The Department has investigated the above-mentioned allegation and based on interviews and record review, the preponderance of the evidence has been met, therefore, this allegation is deemed substantiated. The following deficiency was cited for unlawful eviction and noted on the attached LIC9099-D page. An exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Mariano Perez, whose signature below confirms receipt of a copy of this report and the Licensee Appeal Rights (LIC9058 3/22). Interviews with staff and R1 and review of R1 and R2’s admission agreement signed May 2025 revealed that R1 and R2 moved into the facility on 5/15/2025 under a respite stay for approximately one month. Interviews with staff and R1 and review of R1 and R2’s fee schedule paperwork revealed that the daily rate for R1 and R2’s stay at the facility was $350, for a total of $10,500 for the month-long stay. R1 and R2 paid a deposit of $2,500 via check for their respite stay in April 2025 and paid $8,500 via check on 5/15/2025. Interviews with staff and R1 revealed that the amount on the second check was written incorrectly and R1 and R2 did not have a spare check to fill out at that time, therefore, R1 and R2 paid a total of $11,000 and had overpaid for their 30-day respite stay by $500. Interviews with R1 and staff did not reveal that R1 and R2 unknowingly overpaid upon move in and confirmed that there were discussions that R1 and R2’s stay could be extended, or the extra money would be refunded at a later date. On 5/26/2025, R1 and R2 were asked to move out of the facility by the Executive Director and they vacated their apartment on the same day, terminating the admission agreement. This resulted in R1 and R2’s stay only consisting of 12 days from 5/15/2025 to 5/26/2025. Review of R1 and R2’s admission agreement revealed that the facility’s refund policy stated that any prepaid unused fees minus any expenses incurred by the facility to repair or replace damaged property and remove or store any belongings left behind would be refunded within 30 calendar days of the termination of the agreement. Interviews with staff and R1 revealed that R1 and R2 received a full refund of the total $11,000 paid to the facility 15 days later, on 6/10/2025. The Department has investigated the above-mentioned allegation and based on interviews and records review, this allegation is deemed unfounded, meaning that the allegation was false, could not have happened, or is without reasonable basis.
