Facility Evaluation Report

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Jesse Gardner arrived to the facility to conduct a health and safety check of residents in care. LPA met with Administrator Jones Ntekim. Mr. Ntekim advised that there were a total of 86 residents in care within the facility.

LPA toured the facility with Mr. Ntekim. During the tour, LPA found that residents have the required food supply, and LPA made no observations of violations related to the overall health and safety of the residents, per Title 22.

LPA reviewed, and gathered Staff Oliver Walker's file, as well as other pertinent documents in relation to Mr. Walker during the visit.

Mr. Walker's duties at the facility were that they support clients with Assistance with Daily Living (ADL's), daily reminders for clients, etc. Mr. Walker was not a licensed professional giving medical care to clients; thus, Mr. Walker needed a completed background clearance to conduct their duties in the facility.

Upon review of employee roster through Guardian, it was found that Mr. Walker had not had a completed background clearance. Per Title 22, division 6 chapter 1 article 3, a Type A deficiency was issued. Mr. Walker had been terminated 3/8/22 for an unrelated incident.

An exit interview was discussed with Mr. Ntekim, and a copy of this report, along with copies of LIC809-D and Appeal Rights were provided.
