This is an amended report to ensure the document is correctly classified as a public document. Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Sommer Hayes arrived and met with Lucia Boboc to deliver investigation findings regarding complaint control number 27-AS-20250808162409, Unlawful eviction.
LPA reviewed resident records including the admission agreement and 30-day eviction notice dated 08/05/25. LPA finds that the allegations cited above are substantiated.

LPA Hayes observed that the eviction notice (08/06/25) does not meet regulatory requirements, as it failed to include the approved eviction criteria outlined in Title 22 regulations. The notice cited R1’s pre-existing health conditions prior to admission as the reason for eviction, which does not comply with the specified regulatory standards.

LPA Hayes also interviewed the POA (P2) of R1, who stated they had not observed any staff performing finger pricks on R1 or any other resident. In addition, the POA of R3 reported that they had not witnessed any staff administering finger pricks in the facility.

Based on interviews and record review, the above allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. Based on interviews and record reviews during the investigation, LPA Hayes was unable to corroborate the allegations.

Upon record review of the resident (R1)’s file, it was determined that this resident, upon admission to this facility, had the pre-existing conditions stated in the original eviction notice dated 08/06/25 from Licensee, Lucia Boboc to R1 and R1’s POA. Making the eviction dated 08/06/25 an unlawful eviction.

87224 Eviction Procedures
87224 (a) (4) If, after admission, it is determined that the resident has a need not previously identified and a reappraisal has been conducted pursuant to Section 87463, and the licensee and the person who performs the reappraisal believe that the facility is not appropriate for the resident.

Lucia Boboc provided LPA Hayes with the first eviction notice (dated 08/06/25) on 08/06/25. This eviction notice was served to the R1 and their POA before The Department reviewed the eviction notice. A revision to the eviction notice was requested by LPA Hayes during a virtual meeting on 09/05/25 with Lucia Boboc. LPA Hayes assisted Lucia Boboc with the revision of the eviction letter which was later approved by LPA Hayes and reissued to R1 and R1’s POA.

Based on interviews and record review, the above allegations are SUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint allegations are substantiated means that the allegations are valid because the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. This facility is hereby cited per Title 22 CCR Sections 87224 (a)(4). An exit interview was held with Lucia Boboc. A copy of this report and appeal rights were left with Lucia Boboc.
