(S1s) employment was terminated on February 12, 2024 due to the facility conducting their own investigation. Interviews with staff revealed the intimate relationship between C1 and S1 was not known until the report came in regarding the relationship. Interviews with management denied they knew of any relationship between S1 and C1.

It was alleged that the licensee did not follow reporting requirements. Upon a record review, it was observed that Work Skill staff did not report the incident. Community Care Licensing (CCL) found out about the incident from an outside source that reported it to CCL first. After the report came in the complaint was initiated and interviews revealed they did not report the incident because they claim it did not happen at the facility. Interviews revealed that once they found out about the incident they conducted their own investigation but still did not report the incident to CCL.

Based on interviews the above allegations are substantiated. A substantiated finding means the allegations are valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met.
