During the complaint investigation, a case management deficiencies visit was conducted due to violations discovered during the investigation process. LPA met with Staff (S1) Cleofe Lucas.

LPA spoke with FD via phone call, who stated, the staff put the bread there to feed the birds. Staff S1 disposed of the molded bread during visit.
While touring resident bedroom #3, LPA observed the doorway to the private bath did not have a door. LPA observed it only contained a brown curtain. LPA took photographs of the bathroom, from the inside of bedroom #3. (Photos with light on and off.)
