Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Armando Perez, conducted an unannounced visit to deliver findings for a complaint investigation regarding the above allegation. LPA met with Executive Director, Molly Bowie, where the LPA explained the purpose of the visit and the elements of the allegation. The investigation consisted of observations, interviews with staff members and residents, and a review of records.

On February 6, 2025, Community Care Licensing received a complaint alleging Licensee did not follow proper eviction protocols with resident in care. The complaint alleged Client 1 (C1) was not given adequate time to relocate and secure new housing before the eviction date. LPA interviewed Additional Witness who stated, that although C1 had received all necessary eviction notices, they believed there was a verbal agreement with Executive Director (ED), Molly Bowie to extend the eviction date. However, during an interview with the ED, ED confirmed a conversation with additional witness days before the eviction, but denied offering any extension.

ED clarified that the eviction process was under the jurisdiction of the court system, which was beyond their authority to influence. LPA attempted to interview C1, but was unable to obtain relevant information, as C1 could not answer or recall the questions posed. A record review indicated that the eviction process began on September 25, 2024. The 30 day eviction notice issued to C1 on September 25, 2024 included all the required information per Title 22 regulations. On January 7, 2025, the Superior Court of Riverside formally approved the eviction. Information obtained from a deputy sheriff, who executed the court-ordered eviction, confirmed the eviction complied with legal procedures and was not viewed as unlawful.

Based on interviews, research, and record review, the allegation that licensee did not follow proper eviction protocols with resident in care is unfounded. A finding that the allegation is unfounded meaning that the allegation was false, could not have happened, and/or is without a reasonable basis. This allegation has been investigated and is dismissed

An exit interview was conducted where a copy of this report was provided to Administrator Molly Bowie.
