On 12/1/2025, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Valerie Flores conducted an unannounced visit to the facility for the purpose of issuing citations for deficiencies observed during the investigation into complaint control number 18-AS-20251028101412. LPA Flores met with Administrator Makiz Asmatyar and explained the purpose of the visit.

A records review of Client #1 (C1) preplacement referral revealed that C1 may forget to administer their prescribed medication which results in behavioral changes. A record review of C1’s physician report revealed that C1 requires assistance and supervision with medication management which includes the control and custody of medication. Interviews with C1 and Staff #1 (S1) reported that when C1 had overnight stays at their responsible persons home, C1 was given their medication by S1 without a lockbox in place despite physicians orders advising that C1 requires assistance with administering and storing their medication. Interviews with C1 and S1 reported that when C1 was at their responsible persons home, C1 would at times forget to administer their medication as prescribed. C1 and S1 further reported that C1 left the missed dosage of medication in the container that was provided to C1 by S1. C1 would return to the facility and provide S1 with the missing dosage. Interviews with S1 reported that S1 stored the missed dosage of medication in a container that was not the original packaging/container and S1 would administer C1’s medication as prescribed from the medication that was stored outside of the original packaging. Based on record review, observations, and interviews, deficiencies will be issued in accordance with Title 22 Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations.

An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report and appeal rights was discussed with and provided to Administrator Makiz Asmatyar.
