On August 13, 2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Ernand Dabuet conducted an unannounced case management visit. LPA Dabuet met with Executive Director ACE HUYNH to discuss an incident involving Resident #1 (R1) that occurred on August 7, 2026. The Department received an Unusual Incident Report (LIC 624) on August 7, 2026, regarding an incident that took place at 10:30 AM. It was reported that R1 eloped unsupervised from the community. R1 had been admitted to the community on July 24, 2026, and was diagnosed with a Major Neurocognitive Disorder (NCD). R1 resided on the second floor, which is designated as the "memory care" area. According to Staff #1 (S1) and Staff #2 (S2), while conducting routine checks on residents, they discovered that R1 was not in their room or anywhere on the floor. They immediately contacted the front desk to initiate an elopement alert. Surveillance camera footage confirmed that R1 exited the facility through the front exterior gate without supervision. A door on the second floor, which required a key fob to open, had malfunctioned, allowing R1 to leave the premises via the exterior stairs. R1 was located by law enforcement, who contacted the family, and R1 was returned to the facility on August 8, 2026. Upon return, R1 was reassessed by a Licensed Vocational Nurse (LVN), who found no signs of injury or discomfort. S1 informed the family representative and the physician about the incident. The Department reviewed (R1)'s Medical Assessment LIC 602A (dated 06/16/26) revealed that R1 has a history of "unsafe wandering" and "elopement" which is associated with behaviors in residents diagnosed with (NCD). Further review of camera surveillance footage (dated 08/07/26) verified R1's elopement from the premises. (Evaluation Report continues LIC 809-C) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 The licensee violates Title 22, Section 87411, Personnel Requirements. California Code of Regulations (Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8), deficiencies were observed, and citations were issued (ref. LIC 809-D). An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of the Evaluation Report and Appeal Rights was provided to Ace ACE HUYNH .

Additionally, LPA and Staff turned on the shower in room 245 and it sprayed outside of the shower. During record review, LPA received and reviewed the Maintenance and Equipment Request Forms for repairs dated 04/19/2026 for room 101, 02/26/2026 for room 104, 02/23/2026 for room 118, 02/02/2026 for room 227, and 01/24/2026 room 101.

California code of Regulation, (Tittle 22, Division 6 & Chapter number 8), are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D. An exit interview was conducted with Ace Huyhn, Executive Director, and a copy of this report and the Appeals Rights were provided. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 Allegation: Staff are falsifying resident records The allegation alleges that a resident’s family was given an incident report indicating staff observed a resident eating feces and when speaking to the Primary Care Physician they were notified it was reported that it was observed in the resident’s teeth during oral care.

INVESTIGATION REVEALED THE FOLLOWING: ALLEGATION: Resident call light is in disrepair. I t is alleged that the call light for Resident #1 (R1) is in disrepair. For the past month, the call light has not been functioning properly on weekends. Although it has been fixed each week, it continues to work inconsistently. It is important to note that (R1) is at high risk of falling and requires a functioning call light for safety. No further details have been provided. On July 8, 2026, between 09:50 AM and 11:30 AM, the Department interviewed resident members identified as Resident #1 through Resident #5 (R1-R5). Four (4) out of five (5) could not support this claim. (R2-R5) reported no issues or concerns regarding their call lights. They stated that when maintenance is needed, the response and repair time is timely. (R1) stated that the call light is operational. Although it was down a couple of times, it has been repaired and is now working. (R1) mentioned that it has been functioning well for over a week and a half. (R2), who shares a room with (R1), stated that (R2) has never experienced any issues with (R2’s) call light system and that it served as a useful option for (R1) when (R1’s) call light was inoperable. However, (R2) noted that (R1) tends to pull the cord horizontally, which can cause the entire call box system to come off the wall. (R2) explained that the proper way to use the system is to pull the cord downward to avoid dislodging it. On July 08, 2026, between 09:30 AM and 3:35 PM, the Department interviewed staff members identified as Staff #1 through Staff #3 (S1-S3). Three (3) out of three (3) staff members could not support this claim. (S1–S3) all asserted that Resident #1 (R1) has a functional call light system. (S1) indicated that (S1) became aware of the issue on July 2, 2026, when (S2) received a call about (R1's) call light system being dislodged from the wall and inoperable. (S2) reported that (S2) performed minor repairs on June 19, 2026, to (R1's) call light system, followed by a subsequent service on June 30, 2026, when the call light was found broken. There might have been one time before June 19, 2026, when it was dispatched on the walkie talkie as an urgent request and might have not been logged on the Maintenance Request Report. Services were completed on the same day. Additionally, (S2) claimed that no other service orders were placed apart from those two occasions. (S3) was on duty on June 7, 14, 21, and 28, 2026, when concerns were raised about (R1's) call light system functioning properly. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 Although it was being tested only, it was never reported as non-operational, and no maintenance order for repairs was required. If the situation calls for it, (S3) will promptly place an order for repairs to ensure everything is in top condition. On July 6, 2026, between 8:14 AM and 8:40 AM, the Department conducted an interview with witness #1 (W1). (W1) noticed that the call box was malfunctioning around June 3-4, 2026, after (R1) had pulled it off the wall while seeking assistance. On June 7,2026, (W1) found the call box hanging off the wall again and reported it to the front desk, which informed them that repairs were in progress. (W1) repeatedly observed the call box hanging off the wall and reported it each time. By June 28, 2026, the call mechanism had been tampered with and was no longer usable. The Department inspected room #132 (R1's room) and evaluated the call light system. The wall-mounted system was found to be functioning properly. A care staff member responded within 2 minutes after the call light was activated. Further inspection of the call light system in room #132 (R2) confirmed it was operable as well. In addition, the call light systems in the following rooms were inspected and tested: #101, #104, #134, #137, #139, #141, #142, #206, #208, #213, #217, #228, and #229. All 30 call light systems were found to be in working condition. A review of the Facility Visitor Log Report (dated 06/01/26 to 06/30/26), revealed inaccuracies in the reporting of visit dates from (W1). Additionally, a review of the Facility Maintenance Request Report for the same period confirmed that services were performed on (R1's) call light system on June 19, 2026, and June 30, 2026. The analysis showed that of (68) work orders, (60) were completed within 24 hours, resulting in an 88.24% completion rate. Based on the information gathered, there is insufficient evidence to support the allegation mentioned above. Based on the information collected from the facility inspection, observations, interviews, and records analysis, the Department found no evidence to support the above allegation. The allegation may have happened or is valid, but there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. Therefore, the allegation is Unsubstantiated . No deficiencies cited. An exit interview was conducted with Ace Huynh, and copies of the reports were provided.

On June 15, 2026, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Ernand Dabuet conducted an unannounced case management visit to the facility following an incident reported by the facility that occurred on June 6, 2026. During the visit, the LPA met with Anita Csukardi & Ace Huynh, Executive Directors to explain the purpose of the inspection. The El Segundo Regional Office Adult and Senior Care received an Unusual Incident Report (LIC 624) on June 8, 2026, stating that Resident #1 (R1) had been given the wrong medication. On June 6, 2026, at 4 PM, the medication technician mistakenly verified only (R1's) last name without confirming the correct resident. Consequently, (R1) was administered medications intended for another resident with the same last name. As a result, both Metformin and Senna were given to (R1) in error, leading to hospitalization in the emergency room. The Department found that the facility was not in compliance with Title 22 Regulations and issued citations as follows: 87465(c)(2) Incidental Medical and Dental Care Services.

Read raw inspector notes

Regarding the allegation, “Facility did not maintain a safe and healthful environment for the resident,” it was alleged that a resident was subjected to ongoing noise disturbances due to a roommate’s loud television at night, resulting in sleep disruption. Records review revealed internal incident reports dated 03/12/2026 and 03/13/2026 documenting concerns regarding loud television use and roommate conflict between R1 and R2. Documentation indicated that R1 reported concerns regarding television volume and difficulty sleeping. Records also indicated that staff provided reminders to R2 regarding house rules, including lowering television volume and use of headphones at night. However, the facility did not provide additional requested documentation, including behavior logs, complaint logs, or other records demonstrating ongoing monitoring, follow-up actions, or effective resolution of the roommate conflict. Resident interviews revealed that R1 reported concerns regarding loud television volume at night and disruption of sleep. Staff interviews revealed ongoing roommate conflict between R1 and R2 involving television volume, different sleep schedules, and sleep disruption. Staff further reported that incident reports were completed, the issue was brought to administration, and staff attempted verbal interventions including reminders, counseling, mediation, and review of house rules. S1 reported addressing the concern by counseling the resident, reviewing house rules, and offering a room change. However, both residents declined relocation and staff reported the concern remained ongoing at the time of the investigation. Observations revealed that residents were observed in their rooms and common areas, and the facility appeared calm during the visit. Based on interviews conducted, observations made, and records reviewed, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. Therefore, the allegation that the facility did not maintain a safe and healthful environment for the resident due to ongoing noise disturbance and sleep disruption is Substantiated. This is a violation of California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, Section 87468.1(a)(2), Personal Rights of Residents in All Facilities.

INVESTIGATION REVEALED THE FOLLOWING: Allegation #1: Staff withheld resident's funds. The complaint alleges that the staff is withholding funds from Resident #1 (R1). It is reported that (R1) has a trust fund account intended for a family member, but the administrator has denied (R1) access to those funds. No additional details regarding this matter are provided. Resident #1 (R1) was admitted to Glen Park in Long Beach on January 22, 2026, based on the facility’s Admissions Agreement (dated 01/23/26). (R1) is responsible for self-admission to this facility. On May 11, 2026, between 11:20 AM and 01:00 PM, the Department interviewed resident members identified as Resident #1 through Resident #10 (R1-R10). Nine (9) out of the ten (10) residents could not support this claim. Four (4) of the ten (10) are independent and can manage their own finances. Three (3) of the ten (10) have other family members handling their finances, while two (2) out of the ten (10) cannot manage their finances themselves. (R1) claimed to have an $11,000 trust fund that the facility is withholding. However, (R1) had no information or documentation regarding this trust fund. (R1) was unaware of the trust fund's origin and could not provide further details. The only information (R1) had was that there was a trust fund, and (R1) wanted to grant access to these funds to a family member. (R1) did not have legal documentation arranged that holds and manages assets—such as money, stocks, or real estate—for a beneficiary on behalf of a grantor, managed by a trustee. On May 11, 2026, between 09:45 AM and 01:30 PM, the Department interviewed staff members identified as Staff #1 through Staff #3 (S1-S3). Two (2) out of (3) three staff members reported that (R1) has personal funds being managed by the facility. (S1) indicated that Glen Park serves as the payee for (R1’s) Supplemental Security Income (SSI). Basic services are paid directly to Glen Park, and any remaining funds are deposited into (R1’s) resident's account. Both (S1) and (S2) stated that since (R1) is self-responsible and does not have the power of attorney or conservator managing (R1’s) finances, Glen Park functions as the payee for (R1’s) (SSI). (S1) and (S2) stated that they informed (R1) that (R1) needed to complete a facility form to withdraw funds and for accounting tracking. This information may have led to (R1's) current misunderstanding of the situation. However, (S1-S3) were unaware of any issues regarding (R1's) lack of understanding of the process. (Evaluation Report continue LIC 9099-C) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 (S1) stated that the facility is not being defiant or refusing to provide (R1) with access to personal funds. The funds established by the facility are for any leftover money from (R1’s) (SSI) and Personal and Incidental (P&I) expenses, a term that (R1) does not understand. The management informed (R1) that a process exists: the Check Request form and the Payable Distribution Letter must be completed to distribute funds. On May 11, 2026, between 12:00 PM and 12:15 PM, the Department interviewed a family member identified as Witness #1 (W1). (W1) stated that (W1) was not aware of any trust account in the name of (R1). Furthermore, W1 mentioned that when family members passed away over 30 years ago, there was no trust account for (R1) that (W1) was aware of. A review of (R1’s) Admission Agreement (dated June 30, 2026), Identification and Emergency Information (dated 02/17/26), Medical Assessment LIC 602A (dated 12/30/25), and Resident Appraisal LIC 603A (dated 12/31/25) revealed that (R1) is self responsible but cannot manage their own financial resources. A copy of (R1’s) Record of Resident’s Safeguarded Cash Resources LIC 405 (dated 05/12/26) detailed the date, description, initial deposit, withdrawal, balance, signature, and transaction number, confirming that (R1) has a trust account with a positive balance. Further review of the facility's Check Request form (dated 05/12/26) and Payable Distribution Letter confirmed that the facility has a process in place that must be followed to access (R1's) finances. Based on the information gathered, there is not enough evidence to support the allegation mentioned above. Based on the information collected from the facility inspection, observations, interviews, and records analysis, the Department found no evidence to support the above allegation. The allegation may have happened or is valid, but there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. Therefore, the allegation is Unsubstantiated . An exit interview was conducted with Anita Csukardi, and copies of the reports were provided.

The details of the complaint alleged that the resident went to the hospital and that the facility would not allow the resident to return due to the resident needing to use a Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) machine used for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). It was reported that the facility is evicting the resident and discriminating against the resident because of the diagnosis. On 4/23/26, from 9:30am-12:00pm, the department interviewed staff (S1-S3) and witness (W1) regarding the allegation. 3 of 3 staff denied the allegation that the Facility illegally evicted a resident in care. All staff stated that the facility has not issued an eviction notice nor is the resident being evicted. They all state that the resident went into the hospital because they were having breathing problems. While at the hospital the resident was prescribed a Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (BIPAP) machine which assists with breathing by delivering, via a mask, higher air pressure during inhalation and lower pressure during exhalation. S2 stated that according to the residents’ Physicians Report they can’t manage their own medication, treatment, or equipment and that is why they have not accepted the resident back. S2 stated that once the resident no longer needs the equipment they are welcomed to come back to the facility. The department interviewed witness (W1) about the allegation and (W1) stated that they were informed that the resident would not be able to come back to the facility while they were using the BIPAP machine because their Physicians report stated they could not manage the machine on their own. The department asked if the resident or (W1) has received an eviction notice written or verbal, they stated they have not. The department reviewed the Physician’s Report (Dated: 04/30/2025) and observed that the report states the patient cannot manage their own treatment, medication, or equipment (page 2 Physicians Report). The department reviewed the facility records for the resident and did not observe an eviction notice or eviction notes for the resident. Based on interviews and records that were reviewed, there is insufficient evidence to support the allegation that the Facility illegally evicted a resident in care. 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 . No deficiencies were found and no citations were issued for this complaint investigation. An exit interview was conducted with Ace Huynh, Executive Director, and a hard copy of this Complaint Investigation Report was provided.

Based on interviews, observations, and records review, the licensee failed to ensure a safe and healthful environment for R1, as the resident was subjected to ongoing roommate conflict, including noise disturbances and disruption of sleep, despite having a medical condition requiring dialysis and rest. Staff were aware of the issue for several months and completed incident reports; however, the facility failed to implement timely and effective corrective action to resolve the situation. This violation poses a potential health, safety, or personal rights risk to persons in care.

No active conflict was observed at the time of the visit. Records review revealed the following: Records for R1 indicate a diagnosis of end-stage renal failure requiring ongoing dialysis treatment and that R1 requires assistance with activities of daily living and supervision, including night supervision. Records for R2 indicate physical impairment requiring assistance with activities of daily living. LPA reviewed internal incident reports dated 03/12/2026 and 03/13/2026 documenting complaints regarding loud television use and roommate conflict between R1 and R2. Documentation indicates that R1 reported an inability to sleep due to the volume of the television, and staff provided reminders to R2 regarding house rules, including lowering the volume and using headphones at night. However, the facility did not provide additional requested documentation, including behavior logs, complaint logs, or records demonstrating ongoing monitoring, follow-up actions, or resolution of the roommate conflict. Records reviewed support the allegation, as the documentation confirms the reported concern and demonstrates that interventions were limited to reminders, without evidence of effective resolution, despite the resident’s medical condition requiring adequate rest and supervision. Regarding the allegation, “Facility did not maintain a safe and healthful environment for the resident,” it is being alleged that a resident was subjected to ongoing roommate conflict, including noise disturbances, lack of shared space access, and disruption of sleep, and that staff failed to ensure effective resolution of the situation. Interviews conducted revealed the following: Four residents (R1–R4) reported concerns supporting the allegation, while 10 out of 14 residents reported no concerns. Residents who reported concerns described ongoing roommate conflict involving loud television use at night, lack of respect, and misuse of shared space, as well as feeling unsafe due to roommate conflict and experiencing ongoing issues involving noise, hygiene concerns, and unresolved conflict lasting approximately six months. Interviews with 5 staff (S1–S5) supported the allegation, as staff confirmed that the roommate conflict between R1 and R2 has been ongoing for several months. Staff reported that R1 requires rest due to dialysis treatment, while R2 maintains a conflicting sleep schedule and uses the television at a high volume. Staff further reported that incident reports were completed and the issue was brought to administration, and that staff attempted verbal interventions such as reminders and mediation. S1 reported addressing the concern by counseling the resident, reviewing house rules, and offering a room change; however, both residents declined relocation, and the issue remained ongoing at the time of the investigation. Additional statements indicated that R1 may have difficulty reporting concerns due to language barriers. Please see (LIC9099-C) for report continuation. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 Based on the evidence gathered, interviews conducted, observations, and records reviewed, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met; therefore, the allegation “Facility did not maintain a safe and healthful environment for the resident” is found to be substantiated. The facility identified the roommate conflict and implemented initial interventions; however, those actions were not effective, and the issue continued to impact the resident’s health and well-being. This is a violation of California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, Section 87307(d)(2). A citation is being issued on the attached (LIC 9099D). An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of this report, along with appeal rights, was provided to the Administrator.

On 10/24/2025 between 08:01 AM – 04:56 PM the department conducted interviews with Staff #1 – #5 (S1–S5) and Resident #2 – #11 (R2–R11). An attempt to interview Resident #1 (R1) was made, but the resident was no longer at the facility and could not be contacted. LPA Watson toured the facility with the Assistant Administrator, Catherine Dacara, and found the facility clean and in good repair. The investigation revealed the following: Allegation: Staff do not prevent residents from smoking inside the facility It was alleged that staff failed to prevent residents from smoking inside the facility, resulting in R1 reportedly igniting their shirt while smoking in their bedroom, creating a fire hazard and risk of injury. On 10/24/2025 between 08:01 AM – 04:56 PM LPA Watson interviewed Staff #1 – #5 (S1–S5). Of those interviewed, 5 out of 5 staff denied the above allegation. On 10/24/2025 LPA Watson interviewed Residents #2– #11 (R2– R11). Of those interviewed, 10 out of 10 denied the above allegation. On 10/24/2025 between 08:01 AM – 04:56 PM the department conducted an interview with the Assistant Administrator, Catherine Dacara (S1) and they were asked the question, does staff prevent residents from smoking inside the facility? S1 answered that residents and staff are not permitted to smoke inside the facility, and that a designated smoking patio outside the facility is provided for this purpose. The facility enforces its posted house rules prohibiting smoking on the premises, and staff assist residents by holding their cigarettes to ensure compliance and safety. LPA Watson reviewed the Smoking Policy records, and it showed on pg.1, section 8, under Procedures that “There will be designated times for supervised smoking set by the administration.” A review of the Unusual Incident Report dated 10/09/25 – 10/10/25 revealed that R1 was witnessed on 10/09/25 at approximately 7:00 AM trying to set his shirt on fire using a lighter and attempted to put it out with a broom, causing heavy smoke inside his room.Further review of the Unusual Incident Report also showed that R1 told staff fireworks shot into his room and caused the smoke, but there was no evidence or proof of fireworks being recovered from that incident. Based on record reviews, staff and client interviews, and observations, there is insufficient evidence to support the allegation: “Staff do not prevent residents from smoking inside the facility.” 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. An exit interview was conducted with the Assistant Administrator, and a copy of this report was provided.

Reports have indicated that management staff were informed, but no action has been taken. No further details have been provided on this matter. On August 07, 2025, between 10:00 AM and 04:30 PM the Department interviewed residents identified as Resident #1 through Resident #10 (R1-R10). Eight (8) out of the ten (10) resident members could not support this claim. (R3-R10) reported that they have never experienced an infection while receiving care at this facility. While (R1-R2) both verified being diagnosed with a viral infection. (R3-R10) have expressed general satisfaction with the tableware's condition. They appreciate its cleanliness and indicate that if any issues arise, they would be willing to return it to the staff for replacement. (R2) acknowledged having contracted the viral infection outside of the facility through contact with a close associate who does not reside at Glen Park at Long Beach. (R2) understands and has not interacted closely with the facility's residents. During a routine medical visit, (R1) was diagnosed with a viral infection. (R1) believes this infection was contracted at the facility, likely due to the use of unclean or poorly sanitized tableware. Furthermore, (R1) stated that management has not been informed about this issue. It is assumed that the condition has been recognized as having appropriate antibiotic treatment available for (R1). (R1) indicates that, considering (R1's) health condition, the likelihood of contracting the viral infection through an intimate encounter is considerably improbable. On August 07, 2025, and August 08, 2025, between 09:00 AM and 4:15 PM, the Department interviewed staff members identified as Staff #1 through Staff #4 (S1-S4). Four (4) out of the four (4) staff members are not able to corroborate this claim. (S1-S3) reported that they were not informed about Resident #1's (R1) existing infection. According to (S1-S2), the medical discharge paperwork for (R1) was provided, and upon review, it did not mention any infection diagnosis. The primary physician for (R1) did not communicate any concerns or symptoms related to an infection to the facility staff. (Evaluation Report continues LIC 9099-C) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 (S1, S2 and S4) they verified that (R1 and R2) have no association with one another and are acquaintances only. (R1 and R2) do not share a room or share a table during meals. In addition, (R1) eats alone during meals as preference and does not use facility tableware supplies. (R1) preference utilizing plastic flatware. Additionally, (S4) was only informed that a specific new medication had been prescribed for (R1) to treat a viral infection, which was to be administered over a 14-day treatment period. (S3) communicated that, to (S3's) knowledge, there have been no reported claims from residents concerning dirty or unsanitized tableware, nor have there been any instances of infections attributed to inadequate cleanliness of tableware supplies. A review of Resident #1's (R1's) Medical Clinic Record (dated 08/04/25) revealed no indication of a viral infection or any mention of medicine to treat the infection.  Physician Report LIC 602A (dated 02/24/25) and Resident Appraisal (dated 11/01/23) revealed that (R1) can self-care, can attain personal grooming and hygiene items, can leave the facility unattended, and has a history of skin condition and atopy, which makes (R1) more susceptible to infections. Further review of the Department of Health Care Services Individual Service Plan (dated 05/23/25) revealed (R1) is at risk for skin breakdown and infection. Prescription Medication Orders (dated 08/07/25) revealed that (R1) is prescribed prescription and PNR medications of a total of (30).  Eight (8) out of the thirty (30) have side effects that weaken the immune system and are more susceptible to infection (ref: National Institute of Health), and a weakened immune system can be a trigger for viral infections. According to (ref: National Institute of Health) A viral infection can impact how long bacteria survive on utensils, but it's unlikely. Bacteria need specific conditions, like warmth and moisture, to live. Therefore, sharing utensils, cups, and straws poses a low risk for spreading an infection since the environment is not suitable for bacteria to survive long enough to infect someone else. It is unlikely due to its low survivability outside of the body. The Department inspected the facility on August 07, 2025, and observed the facility in clean and sanitary condition including the dining and kitchen area. The Department observed Staff #3 (S3) washing, rinsing and soaking tableware in hot water with soap and bleach. Then the tableware items are stored in high temperature hood commercial dishwasher for a continuous cleaning and sanitation. (Evaluation Report continues LIC 9099-C) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 Based on the information gathered, there is not enough evidence to support the allegation mentioned above. Based on the information collected from the facility inspection, observations, interviews, and records analysis, the Department found no evidence to support the above allegation. The allegation may have happened or is valid, but there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred. Therefore, the allegation is Unsubstantiated . No deficiencies were cited. An exit interview was conducted with Roniesha Bryant, and copies of the reports were provided.
