32 | LPA interviewed 4 of 5 residents including R1. 4 of 5 residents informed LPA that the staff do not decide who visits them, they decide if they want to have visitors. 4 of 5 residents confirmed that it is their decision to make, not the staffs and the staff do not make the decision for them. 4 of 5 residents informed LPA that staff has never denied visitors without their consent.
R1 informed LPA that they remember denying visitors due to not feeling well and asked staff to let them know. R1 informed LPA that their family does not dictate who they see, it is entirely up to them.
LPA interviewed 3 staff and 1 of 3 staff answered the door of the facility when visitors requested to see R1. 1 of 3 staff informed LPA that R1 informed them that they did not want visitors before denying them into the facility. 2 of 3 staff informed LPA that R1 had stated that they did not want to see the visitors that had arrived. 2 of 3 staff informed LPA that it was R1s decision and that R1s family has not tried to tell them who can and cannot visit R1. 1 of 3 staff did not confirm or deny the allegation due to not being at the facility at the time of the incident.
Due to R1 stating that they did not want visitors and denied the visitors when staff asked. The Department finds that the allegation to be UNFOUNDED. A finding that the complaint is unfounded means that the allegation is false, could not have happened, and/or is without a reasonable basis.
