Facility Evaluation Report

On this day Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jaime Vado conducted an unannounced case management visit in conjunction with a complaint visit made on this day. LPA met with the administrator and explained purpose of today's visit.

LPA discussed with Monica the medications administration policy at the facility and the basis for adding medication handling to the care plan of R1 which did incur an increase in fees. It was determined that upon entry to the facility R1 was able to self manage medications but due to R1 suffering a medical issue R1 is no longer able to self manage medications. Due to this change the facility assumed the responsibility as it is facility policy that if a resident cannot self manage medications the facility will store and manage the medications. LPA received past and current physician's reports for R1 to show the change in ability to mange medications as well as the policy the facility follows regarding such handling of medications.

Report is reviewed with the administrator Monica.
