When asked how the facility staff treat them R1 stated, “They treat me fine. We have had some disagreements about what time medications are given to me, but the staff are following the doctor’s orders.” Staff member S3 stated that staff member S1 didn’t yell during the exchange with R1. S3 further stated that both S1 and R1 were instead speaking with “raised voices.” During an interview when asked if they ever yelled at residents, S1 stated, “I have never yelled at any resident”. On 7/9/2026, the facility filed an LIC 624 Unusual Incident/Injury Report (IR) regarding the exchange per regulation. So, although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

No deficiencies cited during today's visit.

Exit interview conducted. Copy of report discussed and provided to RCC Short. Signature on form confirms receipt of documents.
