Complaint Investigation Report

The medication audit revealed that all 6 residents have a current medication list signed and dated by their personal primary physicians. All prescribed orders were observed to have a matching medication. LPA observed a “staff only” medication box. Admin Martinez stated that medication is for staff usage only. Starting at 2:17 p.m., LPA Ascencio conducted staff interviews and resident interviews. Interviews with staff and residents revealed that they have not seen or heard of any resident being given different medication other than what is prescribed. Further staff interviews revealed that staff are trained in medication management yearly. Based on evidence gathered during the course of the investigation, the allegations: facility staff chemically restrained residents and facility staff administered medication without a prescription is deemed unsubstantiated at this time.

Exit interview conducted and a copy of the report provided to admin via email.
