LPA also attempted to interview resident 2 (R2) who was not willing to be interviewed and resident 3 (R3) stated their personal belongings have not been stolen by staff.
Based on the evidence gathered during the investigation, the above allegation is found to be Unsubstantiated; meaning that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violations did or did not occur.
