During interviews conducted with the residents, R1 reported that she was accepted back at the facility in a timely manner and that she was at the Hospital for less than two days. During interviews conducted with staff, Staff 1 (S1) reported that staff never said that they could not take the resident back. During the course of the interviews AD stated that it was a misunderstanding between the facility staff and the Hospital. Per AD R1 returned to the facility as soon as the Hospital was able to find transportation for R1.

Based on LPA's observation and information gathered during the investigation, LPA is unable to ascertain if the allegation occurred as reported due to conflicting information. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove or refute the alleged violation occurred; therefore, the allegation is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED.

LPA Ramirez conducted an exit interview with AD Pao , and a copy of this report was provided to the facility.
