On 10/09/2024, LPA Zina Brown made an unannounced case management deficiency visit and met with Carl Beboso, Caregiver during today visit and explained the purpose of today's visit.

LPA Brown conducted an annual inspection on Monday, September 30, 2024. During the inspection, based on an interview, Administrator Jose Umana indicated that the resident was not bedridden, despite the physician's report stating otherwise.

On Tuesday, October 8, 2024, Administrator Jose Umana sent an email clarifying that the resident he previously told LPA was not bedridden is, in fact, bedridden, based on further clarification from the doctor. He also stated that the resident is currently located in bedroom #6, which has an exit sliding door near the garage.

Based on interview, record review, and observation, Resident #1 (bedridden) is currently in bedroom #6, instead of bedroom #5, which is the room cleared for bedridden residents per the fire clearance. This presents an immediate health and safety risk to the resident.

As a result, an immediate $500 civil penalty has been issued today, Wednesday, October 9, 2024.

Deficiency cited under California Code of Regulation Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8.

An exit interview was conducted, with a copy of appeal rights, and a copy of this report was provided.
