There was an allegation of Licensee does not ensure staff are trained per regulation. According to the reporting party, new staff only had a little bit of training, and they have not completed all their required certifications such as mandated reporter training or CPR certification. Based on records review, LPA reviewed staff training records (S2, S3, & S4) have received hours annual of training including reporting requirements and CPR certification as required by regulation. Based on LPA’s interviews conducted with staff (S2, S3 & S4), it confirmed that they have received training and have described that they report any incident to the Licensee who fills out required documentation to notify the Department of any incident. The techniques described when performing CPR/1st aid appear to be adequate for this type of incident. A finding that the allegation of Licensee does not ensure staff are trained per regulation is unsubstantiated meaning that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
Another allegation of Licensee does not ensure staff are following safe and sanitary practices for residents in care. The reporting party stated that staff (S1) don’t follow sanitary practices because they walk around barefoot in the home. During investigation LPA reviewed records, conducted interviews and made observations at the facility. On 12/26/25, LPA Felias conducted a 10-day visit to the facility and subsequent visit conducted by LPA Cuadra on 02/05/26. Based on LPA’s observations during tour of the physical plant of the facility inside and outside, the bathrooms appeared clean, free of odors and sanitary condition. Also, staff on duty observed by LPAs had adequate footwear at the time of the visit. Based on confidential interviews conducted by LPA with staff (S2, S3 & S4) and residents (R1, R5 & R6) in care. LPA did not obtain any leading information that could result in any supportive evidence that violation regarding the safety and sanitary practices of staff with residents has occurred. Therefore, LPA has determined and confirmed that although the facility appeared to be clean and in a sanitary condition on recent LPA inspections conducted on 12/26/25 and 02/05/26, LPA is unable to determine if an area of the facility or their staff were in an unsanitary condition at a prior date. A finding that the allegation of Licensee does not ensure staff are following safe and sanitary practices for residents in care is unsubstantiated meaning that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.
