The inspector’s account

Based on the LPA's investigation, the investigation revealed the following. For Allegation 1 – Resident is being sexually harassed while in care.

Interviews with Administrator & House Manager stated that C1 has a history of being promiscuous and invites male clients to C1 room. It’s against house rules to have male clients in female client’s rooms. C1 has a problem with illicit narcotics and has been found a couple of times under the influence of those illicit narcotics and is also against house rules. C1 has been given a written warning on breaking house rules. Interview with Telecare Director stated that C1 does has a lot of issues and is under Doctor’s care for mental issues. The LAPD came to investigate the above allegation, and they conducted interviews with the C1 and other clients. No further investigation was done and did not take anyone into custody. The doctor has adjusted C1 medication, but C1 one refuses to take medication as directed. C1 sometimes complies when C1 family member asked C1 to do take medications. LPA Soto reviewed C1’s Physician’s report and Telecare assessment reports, they do verify that C1 has a medical condition which makes C1 hypersexual. The interviews and records reviewed do not concur with the above 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 with Patricia Dufrenne, Administrator, and a hard copy of report was provided.
