Home Care Organization Evaluation Report

On August 8, 2025, at 2:30 PM, Enforcement Analyst (EA) Adrian Mangina made a third attempt to conduct an unannounced Biennial inspection of Care1st Home Care LLC. Enforcement Analyst (EA) Adrian Mangina arrived during posted business hours and Licensee was not at the licensed office and did not answer a call placed by EA or respond to the voicemail left on the business phone number. EA attempted to call the alternate phone number but no one answered and the message bank was full. EA waited at the Home Care Organization until 3:00 PM but owner did not arrive and did not return the call.

Owner was advised during a courtesy call on 3/28/25 that a designee should be present during posted business hours. Owner has not been present as required for each inspection attempt and has not made changes to posted business hours, this continued non-compliance constitutes refusal to provide records. Per Statute, A Licensee or Designee shall be continuously present during the Home Care Organization’s (HCO) posted business office hours. Any additional incomplete inspections may result in additional penalties. Please notify your Licensing Analyst and Enforcement of any changes to the HCO location or anticipated hours of operation.
