32 | The investigation revealed the following:
Regarding the allegation, Facility did not provide proper eviction notices for residents in care, it is alleged that the facility told residents’ families that, as of March 20, 2026, residents will need to find alternate placement. During the course of the investigation, interviews were conducted with three staff and six witnesses. Three out of three staff denied the allegation, stating families were not told they need to find alternative placement and move residents out of the facility by March 20, 2026. Admin stated that in December 2025, residents’ families were informed that the Admin is looking for an alternative location, while continuing to work with the property owner to ensure residents do not need to vacate the current facility. On March 13, 2026, a meeting was held with Admin and all residents’ families, where five out of five residents’ families were informed that the Admin will remain at the current facility location for a minimum of six months, until the new/prospective property owner acquires a licensee with CCLD. Admin stated they are still looking for an alternative location and will submit a Change of Location application with CCLD, when a new location is acquired and prior to the new/prospective facility owner obtaining a license with CCLD.
Admin stated families were informed that the facility lease agreement ended at the current facility location and although they are now on a month-to-month lease, residents do not need to vacate until provided with written notice. Admin stated they were also informed that written notice would be provided 60 days in advance, per admissions agreement, should residents need to vacate. Witness 1 (W1), corroborate this by stating they are working with Admin to ensure the best outcome for residents in care. W1 stated residents will not need to vacate at this time, and added that when a specific vacate date is established, the Admin will be provided with more that 60 days notice, so they will have ample time to notify residents’ families, if/when alternative placement is required.
Based on LPAs observations, interviews which were conducted, and records reviewed, 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.
An exit interview was conducted with Administrator Rhoena Fajard, a copy of this report, was provided at the end of the visit. |
