13 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kimberly Lyman conducted an unannounced complaint visit to initiate an investigation into the above allegation. LPA was greeted and granted entry into the facility and explained the reason for the visit.
During the course of the investigation, LPA toured the facility and interviewed staff, resident and witnesses as well as reviewed and obtained pertinent documentation such as staff memo. Regarding the allegation that staff allows the POA to dictate visitors for the residents, the investigation revealed the following: On or around December 9, 2025, visitors attempted to visit Residents 1 and 2 (R1, R2) but were told to arrange the visitation through the Durable Power of Attorney (DPOA) and denied visitation. Two out of two staff, witness and visitor confirm visitation was to be allowed with DPOA approval only. Long Term Care Ombudsman visited the facility and advised visitation was to be allowed if residents were amenable to visiting. LPA interviewed resident during the visit who verbalized a wish for visitors. LPA reviewed facility staff email dated 12/11/2025 indicating "Effective immediately visitation was to be allowed for R1 and R2". Based on interviews conducted and record review, CONT ON LIC 9099C DATED 12/19/2025 |
