On 05/07/2026, LPA initiated this complaint investigation and obtained documents, made observations, and conducted interviews. Based on staff schedules obtained for 04/2026 and 05/2026, staff observed on site during the visit, and interviews conducted with Staff 1 (S1), Staff 2 (S2), and Resident 1 (R1), the facility does not currently have one fulltime staff member who has the "full-time responsibility to organize, conduct and evaluate planned activities," nor is there "staff assistance as necessary in order for all residents to participate in accordance with their interests and abilities," as required per regulation. Continued on LIC9099C... Substantiated Continued from LIC9099... Further, these interviews revealed that Staff 3 (S3) had been working in hybrid role as the activities coordinator and the bus driver two days per week until going out on leave several weeks ago, rather than in a designated activities director role as required for a facility approved for a capacity of 50 or more residents. Per interviews, facility staff have been filling in until either S3 returns or the position is filled. These interviews also revealed that activities do not occur according to the schedule either due to the coordinator driving the bus, supplies not present for the scheduled activity, or the coordinator being our on leave. Additionally, LPA's interviews revealed that monthly outings to the store, the local casino, and other routine excursions have not been occurring, nor has the facility facilitated holidays such as a mother's day celebration or other smaller holidays, such as Cinco De Mayo which have all previously been celebrated at the facility. Based on documents obtained and interviews conducted, the allegation that staff does not ensure activities are provided to residents is SUBSTANTIATED. A finding that a complaint allegation is SUBSTANTIATED means that the allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met. Deficiency is cited from Title 22 Regulations, Division 6, (see LIC9099D). Exit interview conducted with Executive Director, whose signature on form confirms receipt of documents.
