Facility Evaluation Report

On 09/23/2024, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jaime Vado conducted an unannounced case management - deficiencies visit. LPA met with Jovy Castro and explained the purpose of todays visit.

During an investigation conducted in relation to complaint # 14-AS-20240514090937, LPA discovered that the director of memory care was handing out medication to residents in care due to a shortage of med-techs at the time before she received full training regarding medication passing. Per interviews conducted with staff it was discovered that the training was conducted, but did the memory care director not pass the medication handling/med-tech test to receive her certification when LPA questioned the staff regarding the certification and other items related to the original complaint. This poses an immediate health and safety risk to residents in care.

A citation is being issued on this day on the following LIC809D.

Report is reviewed with Jovy and a copy is provided on this day.
