Complaint Investigation Report

learned that R1 was admitted to Vitas Hospice on 6/20/18 due to having a terminally ill disease. Based on interview of the Administrator, LPA was told that facility has been following physician's orders and hospice notes in order to meet he needs of the R1. LPA was unable to interview R1 as R1 declined to speak with LPA. After reviewing the file of R1, LPA did not observe any concerns of facility not following physician's orders. There is insufficient evidence to support this allegation.

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.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to the Administrator.
