Facility Evaluation Report

LPA Albert Johnson arrived at the facility today to conduct a case management visit to follow up on an incident report that was submitted to Community Care Licensing.

The report detailed an AWOL from a new resident that was placed on respite from his parents/private residence. The resident in question has a history of contacting the police department and making false allegations about himself or others

The placement agency informed the facility that the requirement of a health screening prior to placement was not required because this was an emergency placement. This however is not a true statement.

The facility is required to have a medical assessment. The assessment is required to have the following: (1) The results of an examination for communicable tuberculosis and other contagious/infectious diseases. (2)Identification of the client's special problems and needs.(3)Identification of any prescribed medications being taken by the client.(4)A determination of the client's ambulatory status, as defined by Section 80001(n)(2). (5) Identification of physical restrictions, including any medically necessary diet restrictions, to determine the client's capacity to participate in the licensee's program. Although some of this information is included in the IPP, the results of an examination for communicable tuberculosis and other contagious/infectious diseases is not part of the information that was provided to the facility.
