Complaint Investigation Report

Complainant alleges Incident Reports have not been filed with CCL as required, and believes there has only been 1 report made over the last 8 months, but there have been multiple incidents that should have been reported. During staff interviews, LPA was informed that an Incident Report (IR) had not been submitted to Community Care Licensing (CCL) within the required timeframes per Regulation 80061 for multiple occurrences. The occurrences not reported were medication errors. Although the clients did not sustain any injury or harm due to the medication errors, the facility failed to ensure the health and safety of the clients in care. The LPA discussed reporting requirements, per regulations with the staff. After a review of records and interviews conducted, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 6 & Chapters 1), are being cited on the attached LIC9099D.
