Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Cuadra arrived unannounced to conduct a complaint investigation and deliver findings regarding the above allegations and met with Josephine Credo, Licensee.

The allegation is about facility violating resident's personal rights. According to the reporting party, the facility is not allowing visitors for resident (R1), but acknowledges that in one occasion they were able to visit R1 at the facility, but they observed that R1 was depressed due to not been assisted with hearing aids with no one knowing sign language around them. Based on records review, the facility provided sign-in log confirmed that R1 has been receiving regular visits from various outside parties. Also, R1’s physician report dated 7/25/25 indicates that R1 is deaf and does not indicate the need for assistive devices. Based on interviews conducted with R1 using a small board to communicate with them, it revealed that they prefer not to receive visits from a couple individuals and regarding hearing aids, they expressed: “I don’t need them”.

Interviews conducted by LPA with staff (S1 & S2) confirmed that the facility allows all residents to receive visitors during visiting hours, but when a resident refuses to receive visits there is nothing, they can do about it. Interviews conducted by LPA with outside parties (I1 & I2) confirmed that they have been able to visit R1 without any issues or restrictions. Based on interviews and records review, LPA is unable to determine if a violation of personal rights occurred at a prior date. A finding that the allegation of facility violating resident's personal rights 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.
