The rules that apply to this facility.
State requirements with the exact regulation citation, plain-language explanation, and a question to ask on tour. Rules this facility has been cited for appear first.
Plain language
Because a facility markets dementia or Alzheimer's care, state law mandates higher training standards: 12 hours of initial dementia training (6 hours before a staff member works independently with residents, 6 more within the first 4 weeks), 8 hours of annual dementia in-service every year thereafter, and an administrator must include 8 hours of dementia-specific continuing education in every 2-year recertification cycle. Training must cover individualized care plans, behavioral expressions, appropriate supervision, and the facility's dementia care philosophy.
Ask on tour

During their interview, S1 stated that on January 2, 2026, it had been raining on and off and R1 was "insistent" on getting their girlfriend a phone. Per S1, R1 was able to leave the facility unassisted and did so from time to time. S1 stated shortly after R1 left to the cell phone store on foot, they received a call from the Hospital stating R1 had fallen outside of the cell phone store. Per S1, R1 did have a walker, however, R1 was able to ambulate without it and only used the walker occasionally. S1 stated they were unsure if R1 had their walker prior to leaving the facility or if R1 had been using the walker at the time of their fall. During their interview, R1’s responsible party, Witness 1 (W1) stated they were unsure if R1 had their walker prior to leaving the facility, however, stated R1 was able to ambulate without it, and often did so at their own discretion. During their interview, R1 was unable to confirm or deny if they had their walker prior to leaving the facility or if they been using the walker at the time of their fall. Based on record review of R1’s LIC602 and LIC624, and due to allegation being uncorroborated during interviews conducted, the Department is unable to determine if Staff did not ensure that resident had their required mobility aid prior to leaving the facility. Although the above 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 at this time the above allegation is unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted and copy of this report was provided at the end of the inspection.
