On 9/25/2023 LPA Ivey Canady received and reviewed additional facility documents including facility training documents, medication files and medication logs. According to facility training documents, facility staff are trained regarding Title 22 regulations for storing medication in the facility.

On 9/25/2023 LPAs conducted interviews with facility staff and one resident. According to resident interviews, facility medication logs and chart notes, the medication cabinet is locked at all times when it is not being accessed by staff to pass out medication. According to LPA observation, facility medication storage locker was locked upon arrival.

Therefore, the allegation Staff did not store resident's medications locked and inaccessible to residents is unsubstantiated.

An unsubstantiated finding means although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

Per California Code of Regulations (CCR), Title 22, no deficiencies were observed during the visit. An exit interview was held with Administrator Joan Little, and copy of the report provided via email due to scabies exposure..
