Staff interviewed reported adequate staffing and access to needed supplies. Staff demonstrated general knowledge of daily care routines; however, gaps were noted in medication procedures. Confidential resident and staff records were reviewed and were stored in locked areas. During the required annual visit, LPA reviewed resident records, medication storage, and staff training.
LPA observed five (5) pre-poured medication in locked medication closet for residents #1- Resident #5 (R1–R5), Staff #1 confirmed during interview that staff pre-pour medications before administration. Further inspection of kitchen revealed that dishes were washed using soap and water only, with no sanitizing step. Rodent droppings as well as dead cockroaches were observed inside storage cabinets. During the inspection, LPA also observed staff rinsing contaminated linens outdoors using a garden hose. This practice does not meet infection control requirements for safe handling of soiled materials and poses an immediate health and safety risk. LPA observations further revealed the garage showed a bed, dresser, clothing, and personal belongings. Staff interviews did not confirm sleeping in the garage. However, the garage is not an approved living area under the facility’s fire clearance. Personal rights concerns were observed for residents R1–R3. Residents were observed partially undressed, wearing only briefs, or wearing shirts cut up the back. Care plans contained no documentation supporting the practice.
Based on observations, interviews, and record review, deficiencies are cited today per California Code of Regulations, Title 22. Deficiencies are documented on the attached LIC 809-D pages. Plans of Correction (POCs) were jointly developed with the Administrator.
An exit interview was conducted with Administrator Mohammad Rahman, to whom a copy of this report, the LIC 811 Confidential Names List, and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC 9058 03/22) were provided.
