On 10/30/24, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kevin Mknelly conducted an unannounced complaint investigation visit to deliver the findings for the above allegations and met with caregiver/ designee, Mia Alvarado.
LPA conducted records review and extensive interviews.
LPA is unable to find and or meet the preponderance, per policy.
It was alleged that a caregiver, S1, while staff approached R1 to hand R1 a phone that S1 grabbed R1's right shoulder. Interview with R1 with R1 was very inconsistent and about when and how S1 was to have grabbed R1. Furhtermore, R1, made additional statements that showed misrepresentation of R1's abilities and perceptions of others. Interviews with staff and other residents found no witnesses to inappropriate behaviors by S1 toward other residents.
As a result of this investigation, LPA finds allegation to be (US)Unsubstantiated - A finding that the complaint is Unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.
Exit interview conducted and report provided.
Unsubstantiated
