Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Alvaro Ramirez, Jr. conducted an unannounced visit to deliver findings on an investigation completed by the Department. LPA was greeted and granted entry into the facility by Assistant Administrator Anna Jung and explained the reason for the visit. During the course of the investigation, the following deficiencies were observed and are being cited via this case management deficiency.

During course of the investigation it was determined Resident 1 (R1) was admitted to the facility on April 30, 2022. However, R1’s admission agreement was signed and dated April 29, 2022. Facility AD Hyo Sok Kim admitted she had filled out R1’s paperwork prior to R1 being admitted and assessed. Despite being provided with R1’s history of exit seeking and behaviors, R1 was failed to be properly assessed and later it was determined R1 was not a good fit for the facility. Licensee Eric Doan stated the facility had not received R1’s paperwork prior to being admitted and that the hospital had dropped R1 off after hours and on the weekend. This was a false statement as investigation revealed that the facility did in fact receive R1’s paperwork prior to R1 being admitted. They were expecting R1 in advance of them being placed with the facility but failed to properly conduct an assessment. On May 1, 2022, R1 eloped from the facility at approximately 11:30 AM after becoming agitated with the Staff 2 (S2). No staff followed behind R1. S2 awaited until 1:49 PM, approximately 3 hours later, to notify La Habra Police R1 was missing.

The following deficiencies are being cited per Title 22 Division 6.

An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report and appeal rights were left at the facility.
