32 | According to the allegation received, Resident 1 (R1), was not adequately cared for by staff. Outside source 4 (OS4) stated that the facility staff called the Fire department for a lift assist for R1 from the bathroom to R1's bedroom on 01/07/2024. Records reviewed revealed that R1 was on Hospice care and was in an appropriate setting for the care R1 required. On 01/09/2024 the facility staff called the Paramedics for assistance for a medical transport for an unwitnessed fall. R1 and Outside source 4 (OS4) requested to not be transported to the hospital. The hospice company following R1 was contacted and reviewed R1's medication and R1's current condition and stated that R1's condition was in line with R1's hospice diagnosis. R1 was assisted to R1's bed and was made comfortable. R1's wishes was to remain at the facility.
Staff interviews revealed that they have received appropriate training and were confident in their ability to meet R1's care needs. Staff provided documentation showing regular communication with medical professionals and adherence to the resident's care plan.

LPA reviewed care logs, medication administration records, and the care plan for R1. All records were up-to-date, and no discrepancies were noted in care or supervision. Staff training records and schedules were also reviewed, confirming that the staff working with R1 were properly trained and available according to facility standards.
Based on interviews, LPA observations, and records review, a preponderance of evidence does not exist to prove that the alleged violation occurred; therefore, the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED. An exit interview via telephone was conducted with Administrator Regina Jackson-Patton, to whom a copy of this report and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22) were provided.
