32 | S2 stated they are the responsible staff member to complete grocery shopping and they were going to go food shopping today. S1 and S3 stated one residents receives nothing by mouth (NPO) via G-tube three times per day. LPA observed there were nine boxes of “compleat” peptide in which one box contains 24 peptides. The residents family assists with replenishing peptide inventory every other week. Additionally, one resident receives pureed meals following their physicians orders.
S1-S3 assisted LPA with a tour of the refrigerator, pantry, and supplemental food supply that is kept in the garage. LPA observed there is not sufficient food inventory to accommodate for seven-day non-perishable and two day perishable food supplies for four residents in care; which would consist on a minimum of 84 non perishable meals and 24 perishable meals plus snacks available at the facility at all times. Based on the interview statements and observations obtained during the investigation process, the allegations are substantiated.
The Department has determined, based on the preponderance of the evidence obtained during this investigation, that the allegation of the home is not often maintained with an adequate supply of food. The deficiency is cited per California Code of Regulations, TITLE 22. Exit interview was conducted with facility staff. Appeal Rights were issued, and a copy of this report was left at the facility. |
