Administrator stated a different on-call staff “had a bit of attitude,” and was “short” with clients and not the most patient. However, this staff never “lashed out” at clients. Another staff stated one staff is “sometimes pushy and firm but cares for clients.” Administrator stated there was one instance where a staff was sitting at the kitchen counter and C1 was telling a story, and the staff just walked away and did not listen to C1. Administrator stated S2 was not caring about the quality of care and was let go due to performance issues. Based on the information obtained, the allegation is deemed Substantiated at this time.
