The Rulebook

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.

What dementia-care training must staff complete?22 CCR §87705 / HSC §1569.625
Cited Aug 2023+
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

Can you show me each direct-care staffer's most recent dementia training certificate, and tell me when their next refresher is due?

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kelly Dulek arrived on September 19, 2025 for an unannounced inspection to follow up on a substantiated allegation of a complaint investigation. The LPA met with Director of Health Services Heather Hampel. On February 16, 2022, the Department concluded a complaint investigation regarding the following allegations: Due to lack of care and supervision, resident suffered a fall, resulting in injuries; and facility did not seek medical attention in a timely manner. The licensee was cited for California Code of Regulations (CCR) 87468.2(a)(4) Additional Personal Rights of Residents in Privately Operated Facilities; and 87465(g) Incidental Medical and Dental Care. At the time of the complaint visit on February 16, 2022, an immediate civil penalty of $500 was issued and the licensee was informed that an additional civil penalty might be assessed based on Health and Safety Code §1569.49(f). The Department has concluded an analysis and has determined that a civil penalty is warranted for serious bodily injury. The Welfare and Institutions Code Section 15610.67 defines serious bodily injury as “an injury involving extreme physical pain, substantial risk of death, or protracted loss or impairment of a function of a bodily member, organ, or of mental faculty, or requiring medical intervention, including but not limited to, hospitalization, surgery, or physical rehabilitation.” This is evidenced by the facility not providing proper care and supervision that resulted in the resident (R1) falling, sustaining rib fractures and hematomas, which required hospitalization. In addition, R1 did not receive timely medical attention until the day after the Report Continued on 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 incident. Today, September 19, 2025, the Department will be issuing a civil penalty per Health and Safety Code §1569.49(f) for a violation that the Department constitutes as serious bodily injury in the amount of $10,000. However, since an immediate civil penalty of $500 was previously issued on February 16, 2022, the amount of the civil penalty issued today will be $9,500. Exit interview conducted. A copy of the report issued. Appeal rights provided. Director of Health Services Heather Hampel and signature on this report acknowledges receipt of the appeal rights, found on page two of LIC 421D.

Interview with the Administrator stated that since R1 was in a wheelchair, staff would check on R1 at least every 2 hours or as needed. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the above allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not sufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.

The complainant did not state where bruises were on Report Continued on 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 R1’s body or any other details. Interviews conducted with staff denied staff handing R1, or any resident, in a rough manner. R1’s medical records from Los Robles Regional Medical Center for R1’s hospitalizations on 10/25/2023 and 03/30/2024 did not note any bruising on R1’s body. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the above allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not sufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time. Regarding allegation: 4.) Facility staff did not ensure resident had sufficient intake of food. It was alleged that R1 was not being fed and the food being served to R1, R1 would not eat. Per record review, R1 was admitted to the facility on 08/22/2023. Per R1’s physician report dated 05/31/2023, R1 was to be on a diabetic diet.

On 03/04/2024, it was noted that R1 rarely eats a complete meal and generally eats only about half of any food offered. It was noted that R1 also drinks protein shakes and dietary supplements to increase calories. Throughout R1’s home health notes R1 was also noted to have diminished cardiovascular capacity and generalized weakness which also attributed to R1’s lack of appetite. During the initial complaint visit and subsequent visits, the LPAs observed a sufficient supply of perishable and non-perishable food. Four (4) out of four (4) residents interviewed revealed that the food is good, adequate, and well portioned. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the above allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not sufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time. Regarding allegation: 5.) Facility staff did not answer resident’s calls for assistance. It was alleged that R1 would wait 30 minutes for facility staff to assist R1 when the call button was pressed. Interview with the Administrator revealed that R1 would press the call button but then a second later would press it again which turns off the call. The Administrator said that staff would remind R1 to only press the button once. The Administrator also explained that for residents who can’t use the call buttons, there are bed pads that have Report Continued on 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 censors if a resident falls or has a sudden movement that alert staff. During the subsequent visit on 03/25/2025, at 11:08 a.m., the LPAs tested a call button and staff arrived within 2 minutes, thinking a resident pressed the button. Interviews with residents did not voice concerns regarding the wait time for assistance. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the above allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not sufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time. Regarding allegation: 6.) Facility staff yelled at resident. It was alleged that a facility staff that was described as a registered nurse (RN) was overheard yelling at R1. Interview with Administrator revealed that he has not heard or observed staff yelling at residents. Interviews with staff also denied staff yelling at residents, including R1. Interviews with residents did not voice any concerns regarding staff treatment. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the above allegation.

Regarding allegation: 7.) Facility staff did not provide records to resident’s responsible person. It was alleged that facility staff refused to give R1’s responsible party R1’s medical records. Administrator stated that he did give R1’s responsible party hard copies of R1's records.

Once approved through the home office, the Administrator will then release the records. However, in the case of R1, the records were released to R1's family immediately upon request. The information obtained during the investigation did not include evidence sufficient to corroborate the above allegation. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not sufficient evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.

as well as toured the facility and obtained copies of additional documents. On 11/14/2024, LPA, along with Long Term Care Ombudsman (LTCO) MaeRetha Coleman conducted a subsequent complaint investigation. During the visit, LPA and LTCO interviewed Administrator at 09:45AM and conducted a health and safety check tour of the facility at 10:38AM. Administrator was informed throughout the visits that the complaint was referred to Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) Investigations Branch (IB) and assigned to Investigator Phillipe Ryan Miles for investigation. Investigator Miles obtained and reviewed copies of Ventura County Sheriff’s Office (VCSO) reports related to the incident. Investigator Miles also interviewed Administrator on 03/06/2025. Throughout the course of the investigation, LPA Dulek reviewed all documents and reports obtained. During today’s visit, LPA reviewed and obtained a copy of the Medication Administration Record (MAR) for Resident #1 (R1). The following was then determined: Allegation: “Neglect/lack of care & supervision – Resident 1 (R1) caused severe injuries to Resident 2 (R2) that led to the death of R2:” The complaint alleges that an incident occurred on the morning of 11/01/2024, which resulted in R2’s death. LPA Dulek received a telephone call on 11/01/2024. Administrator indicated to LPA that an incident had occurred between two (2) residents at the facility, which resulted in R2 passing away due to the injuries sustained. LPA conducted a case management visit on 11/01/2024; a written incident report was provided to the LPA during the visit. VCSO interviewed all staff working at the facility on the overnight shift when the incident occurred. Review of interviews revealed that during the overnight shift that took place from 10:00PM on 10/31/2024 to 06:30AM on 11/01/2024, Resident #1 (R1) was observed to be agitated. Initially, the facility charge nurse radioed for assistance in the shared room belonging to R1 and Resident #2 (R2) before midnight. Staff #1 (S1) and Staff #2 (S2), who were working as caregivers during the overnight shift responded to the call for assistance. R2 was non-ambulatory and required assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as toileting and transfer assistance. R2 was attempting to get out of their bed at that time. S1 and S2 provided care to R2 and observed that R1 was awake and concerned with the commotion in their shared room. Staff reassured R1 that everything was okay before leaving the room. Around 03:30AM, staff saw R1 walking around the common areas. R1 had a staff radio in their hand, as well as the foot rest from a wheelchair. S1 and S2 attempted to calm R1 as R1 indicated they were hearing voices and seeing “somebody.” Staff indicated R1 was “inconsolable and agitated.” All 3 (three) staff working the overnight shift observed R1’s behaviors around 03:30AM. While two (2) Silverado staff walked away, leaving R1 in the common area, S1 agreed to walk R1 to their room and check the room for R1’s safety. R1 began swinging the wheelchair leg at S1, resulting in a scratch to S1’s left forearm. S1 was able to take the items from R1 Report Continued on LIC 9099-C (p.3) 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 and R1 returned to their room at that time. S1 stated that R1 was “acting very dangerous” and S1 was scared that R1 would hurt someone. S1 requested the charge nurse to administer a PRN (as needed) medication to R1, however the charge nurse indicated that sometimes the medication does not work and the MAR indicated the medication was not administered. Around 04:30AM, while S1 and S2 were continuing to assist other residents, S2 heard a noise from the upstairs bistro area. The charge nurse radioed and indicated R1 had broken an upstairs window, but everything was okay. Staff found R1 in the common area covered in blood. R1 was agitated and would not allow staff to get close enough to R1 to assess for injury. The nurse called 9-1-1 and both VCSO, fire department, and emergency medical personnel responded promptly. When VCSO had secured the area and was present with R1, facility staff left the common area to go check on R1’s roommate, R2. Facility staff found R2 lying in their bed severely injured. Emergency personnel assessed R2 and pronounced R2 deceased. The cause of death was determined to be blunt force trauma. VCSO arrested R1 for R1’s involvement in R2’s death. Staff interviews revealed that R1 had been acting dangerously earlier in the evening, including physically assaulting S1, yet staff allowed R1 to return to their shared room unsupervised, where R1 physically assaulted R2 resulting in the death of R2. Based on interviews and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met. Therefore, the allegation above is deemed SUBSTANTIATED at this time. Allegation: “Facility did not provide basic services to resident(s) in care:” The complaint alleges the facility did not protect R2 from their roommate, which resulted in R2’s death. As described above, staff indicated that on the night of the incident, R1 was “acting very dangerously” and S1 stated they were scared that R1 would hurt someone. Staff employed by the facility were aware that R1 had a history of aggressive behavior, which had previously prevented R2 from receiving care based on R1’s behaviors. R1 had a known behavior of arming themselves with pieces of metal found around the facility. On the night of the incident, R1 believed there were vampires in the facility and was hearing voices. Review of R1’s MAR revealed that R1’s PRN Lorazepam, which was ordered twice a day as needed for agitation, was not administered at all from 10/28/2024 – 11/01/2024 even though staff interviewed stated R1’s agitation was “out of control” during that time period. Interview revealed that on the night of the incident when S1 requested the nurse administer R1’s PRN Lorazepam, the nurse indicated it “sometimes didn’t work” and the medication was not documented as administered. Around 03:30AM on 11/01/2024, R1 attacked S1 with a metal wheelchair footrest, resulting in injury to S1. Staff attempted to de-escalate R1 and had threatened to call the police due to R1’s behaviors. However, staff did not call police until after R1 broke the window upstairs and staff found R1 covered in blood. Staff interviewed stated that R2 would have been defenseless Continued on LIC 9099-C (p.4) 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 during any attack due to their mental impairment, limited communication and non-ambulatory status, yet staff still allowed R1 to return to their shared room throughout the night. Staff did not provide any additional safety checks inside R1 and R2’s room, even though R1 was acting erratically and R2 was unable to get out of bed without assistance. Based on interview and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the allegation above is deemed SUBSTANTIATED at this time. Allegation: “Facility did not reappraise resident(s) in care” and “facility retained a resident that required a higher level of care:” Record review revealed that upon admittance to the facility, R1’s diagnoses included, but were not limited to Parkinson’s Disease, Unspecified Psychosis not due to a substance or known, and unspecified dementia with behavioral disturbance. During a care conference on 05/02/2024, it was noted that R1 had increased hallucinations in addition to delusions. At that time, R1 was residing in a private room on the first floor. Management indicated that the lower floor is geared toward higher-functioning residents with dementia diagnoses and the upstairs area is designated for more advanced dementia and residents who require additional ADL care. Staff interviews revealed that R1 was moved upstairs to a shared room on 06/27/2024. Following the move to the second floor, R1 was noted with increased anxiety and agitation particularly later in the day, however R1 had a lower dosage of PRN medication prescribed for agitation at that time. On 08/30/2024, facility staff sent a request to R1’s physician indicating “pt mood is unstable” and R1’s physician ordered blood work. R1 visited the emergency room on 09/13/2024 due to syncope, orthostatic hypotension and seizure. On 10/17/2024, R1’s physician ordered an increased dose of Lorazepam twice daily as needed for agitation. Additionally, R1’s behaviors had changed more in the days and weeks leading up to 11/01/2024. The facility did have a form for Behavior Mapping dated 10/22/2024, with indications of R1 being awake in their room or awake in the hallway during the overnight hours. R1 was noted to be “withdrawn,” “anxious,” or “pacing” at these times. Staff interviewed stated R1s agitation the last three (3) or four (4) days has been “out of control” and “not re-directable.” On the night of the incident, all staff working were aware that R1 was “acting very dangerous” prior to the incident occurring, however, staff did not inform management nor intervene by calling 9-1-1 when R1 attacked S1 earlier in the evening. R1’s care plan was dated 04/14/2024; no new reappraisal nor care plan was assessed based on the observed changes in R1’s behavior. R1 was seen by Behavioral Health on 10/31/2024 and noted with “major depressive disorder” and document indicates “no cognitive impairment noted.” Based on interview and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the allegations above are deemed SUBSTANTIATED at this time.

Interview conducted with staff, potential witnesses and records reviewed revealed the following: R1 moved into this facility on 05/23/2022. A care plan meeting was initiated by facility staff on or about 06/10/2022 and another in 8/2022. Service plans completed by facility staff dated 5/25/2022; 05/31/2022; 09/06/2022; 11/03/2022; 11/30/2022; 03/21/2023 and 05/31/2023 were observed on file and reviewed. The Service Care Plans did not have any signatures to confirm who completed the evaluation and who was present during the evaluations. Potential witness interviewed revealed that beginning 10/2022 – 9/14/2023 several care plan meetings were initiated by R1’s responsible person due to the increasing decline observed in R1’s condition. On or about 07/13/2023, former Executive Director Stephanie Funderburg reported to R1’s responsible person that they would conduct a 72-hour behavioral mapping to address any issues or concerns. No documentation or record of this was found on file. On or around 09/07/2023, R1 was evaluated by Silverado team, and it was agreed to have R1 tested for possible UTI due to the increasing behavioral changes observed. On 09/13/2023, R1 sustained a fall. Interviews conducted revealed that the facility did not follow through with sending labs out for UTI test results. R1's responsible person was informed by former Director of Health Services - Hope Langston that the lab never picked up the urine sample. No further action was taken by facility. On 09/14/2023, R1's responsible person contacted the physician and reported the increased decline observed and current symptoms; R1 was transferred to the nearest ER per physician orders; R1 was admitted to Los Robles Hospital on 09/14//2023 – series of tests were conducted. R1 tested positive for UTI and chest x-ray indicated pneumonia. Based on the above gathered, there is sufficient evidence to support the allegations; therefore allegations “Resident care needs not met” and “Staff did not initiate meeting with resident's responsible person”; is deemed Substantiated. Pursuant to Title 22 Division 6 Chapter 8 of the CA Code of Regulations, the following deficiencies cited (refer to LIC 809-D): Exit interview conducted.

Staff interviewed denied allegations and reported that all residents are assisted with dressing when needed. Staff reported that if a resident is observed with soiled clothing staff would attempt to change resident. Staff expressed that residents do have accidents daily and are changed and cleaned when observed. Staff expressed that if a resident becomes combative, they would give resident space and allow resident to calm down and not force resident to change. Staff reported that residents are not left unattended and are checked and cleaned regularly. Facility common areas, and random resident rooms were toured on 9/20/2023; and on 03/29/2024 during the annual inspection. During these visits, random resident rooms and common areas toured did not observe to be unkept and were odor free at time of visits. Other potential witnesses interviewed shared that the facility is kept clean, odor free and facility residents observed in the common areas to be clean and not with soiled clothing. Based on the above gathered, although the allegations may be valid, there is insufficient evidence to support the allegation or that a violation occurred; therefore, the above allegations “Staff left resident in soiled clothing; Staff not keeping resident’s room free from odor and Staff not keeping resident’s room clean” are deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. Exit interview conducted and copy of report provided.

management and attempted to interview residents. Management indicated that there had been reports around January or February that staff were sleeping during their shifts. Management proactively conducted night audits and observations of the NOC staff. As a result of the audits, 2 (two) staff were terminated from employment at that time. LPA confirmed that ED was first associated with the facility on 01/22/2024 and ED stated that this had occurred around the time of his employment with the facility. Staff interviews revealed that there have been no other staff observed sleeping while on shift, nor have any staff heard of this occurring in the last 6 (six) months. NOC care staff indicated they work together during the shift to ensure both staff are awake, alert, and caring for the residents properly. Additionally, a nurse works during the NOC shift, who walks the building and frequently checks in with the care staff to ensure there are no problems or concerns. All staff interviewed indicated it would be nearly impossible for staff to sleep on NOC shift with the way they are currently operating. At the time the complaint was received and for the previous 6 (six) months, there were no reports of staff sleeping on NOC shift. Residents observed appeared well cared for and content but were unable to be interviewed. Based on interview, at this time there is insufficient evidence to support the allegation or that a violation occurred, therefore, the allegation “staff are sleeping while on working hours” is deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED at this time. No deficiencies cited during this visit. Exit interview conducted with Director of Health Services. A copy of the report was provided.

(continued from LIC9099) It was noted that the incident was self-reported by the facility on 02/09/2024. Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Teresa Camara conducted two Case Management visits regarding the incident on 02/12/2024, from 9:32am to 11:45am and on 02/14/2024 , from 9:09am to 1:20pm . During the visits, LPA Camara met with the Administrator, reviewed and obtained records, toured the facility, conducted staff interviews, and attempted to interview R1. The LPA also reviewed a video of the incident. The incident report documented that on 02/09/2024, at approximately 8:15am, Resident #1 (R1) was receiving assistance from Staff 1 (S1). S1 was observed to handle R1 roughly, slap R1, grab R1 by the neck and shoulder, verbally threaten R1, and push R1 in the hallway. The Ventura County Sheriff's Office was called and ultimately arrested S1. On 02/29/2024, from 9:20am to 10:30am, LPA Camara conducted an initial complaint investigation visit and health and safety check. The LPA met with co-Administrator Rob Babasanta and explained the reason for the visit. At 9:40am, the LPA requested and obtained documents. At 9:45am, the LPA conducted a physical plant tour. The LPA advised that further investigation would be conducted by Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) Investigations Branch (IB) Investigator Philippe Ryan Miles. On 04/22/2024, from approximately 10:56am to 1:32pm, Investigator Miles attempted to conduct an interview with R1 (who was unable to be interviewed due to diagnosis of advanced dementia/Alzheimer’s disease/unable to communicate), conducted interviews with Administrator, Director of Health Services, and Staff #1 (S1); on 05/03/2024, 05/14/2024, and 05/20/2024, attempted to interview former Staff #2 (S2), and left voice messages. In addition, Investigator Miles reviewed Superior Court of California, County of Ventura VCIJIS Case#: 202403859 court documents, Ventura Sheriff’s Department VSD Report#: 2024-16948, facility surveillance video, and facility file documents pertaining to the investigation. (continued on LIC9099-C page 3) 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 (continued from LIC9099-C page 2) According to the incident report submitted by the facility, on 02/09/2024, at approximately 8:15am, S1 assisted R1 while changing R1’s clothes. S2 walked in to assist S1 who became aggressive towards R1. R1 spat on S1, who then aggressively pulled R1’s pants down. S1 pushed R1 to a seated position on the bed. R1 slapped S1. S1 slapped R1 in the face, “grabbed R1’s face and demanded R1 apologize.” S2 requested S1 to move away and would take care of R1. While S2 was assisting R1, S1 had their arm on R1’s neck and shoulder. S1 “was saying you think you are stronger than me.” S2 told S1 to leave the room. R1 went outside the room to sit down on the bench. R1 did not want to go with S1 who began pulling R1 down the hallway causing R1 to almost lose balance. Staff reported the incidents to management. The investigation revealed that due to the incident on 02/09/2024, R1 sustained a small, fresh laceration to their left arm. The laceration was approximately one centimeter in length and drew blood. During the VSD interview and evaluation of S1, Deputy Barrios observed signs and symptoms of S1 “being under the influence of a controlled substance.” S1 displayed “pinpoint pupils in indoor lighting, was extremely fidgety, and was not able to provide an accurate or chronological sequence of events from start to finish. S1’s statements were fragmented and while S1 spoke, the deputy observed a “very visible and pronounced neck pulse.” S1 denied covering R1’s mouth, grabbing the back of neck, or using S1’s forearm to push R1 down to the bed. S1 stated they placed their hand near R1’s mouth to prevent R1 from spitting on S1, but “was adamant that at no time did they (S1) cover R1’s mouth.” S1 stated S1 assisted R1 down the hallway to the dining hall but was not “dragging” R1 “rather [than] assisting R1 with R1’s movement using S1’s body weight.” A review of the video surveillance showed S1 “mistreating, dragging, taunting, slapping, and air kicking” R1 in the hallway. The VSD conducted an investigation and the VSD arrested S1 and transported S1 to the Pre-Trial Detention Facility (PTDF) where S1 was booked for PC 368(b)(1) for Elderly Abuse and HS 11550(a) for Under the Influence of a Controlled Substance. (continued LIC9099-C page 4) 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 (continued from LIC9099-C page 3) On the allegation “Physical Abuse – Resident #1 (R1) was physically and emotionally injured by Staff #1 (S1) while under the care and supervision of the facility” – On 02/09/2024, the day of the allegation, S2 reported to the Director of Health Services, that S2 witnessed S1 physically abuse R1 while changing R1’s soiled clothing. According to Ventura Sheriff’s Department (VSD) Report#: 2024-16948, S2 told the deputies S2 witnessed S1 slap R1 on the face, and actively applied pressure using S1’s forearm against R1’s chest while on R1’s bed. The Director of Health Services showed the captured surveillance video to the deputies of S1 “mistreating, dragging, taunting, slapping, and air kicking” R1. The VSD arrested S1 and transported S1 to the Pre-Trial Detention Facility (PTDF) where S1 was booked for PC 368(b)(1) for Elderly Abuse and HS 11550(a) for Under the Influence of a Controlled Substance. S1 claimed S1 did not physically abuse R1. Based on the interviews conducted, supporting documents, and video surveillance; there is sufficient evidence to support the allegation of Physical Abuse. Therefore, the allegation is deemed Substantiated at this time. On the allegation “Conduct Inimical – Staff #1 (S1) was arrested and charged with misdemeanor elder abuse and being under the influence of a controlled substance” - On 02/09/2024, the day of the allegation, when the VSD was at the facility questioning S1 regarding R1, the VSD Deputy observed signs and symptoms of S1 “being under the influence of a controlled substance.” During the evaluation of S1’s urine sample collected, S1 tested “presumptive positive for amphetamines and opiates.” S1 was transported to the Pre-Trial Detention Facility (PTDF) where S1 was booked for PC 368(b)(1) for Elderly Abuse and HS 11550(a) for “Under the Influence of a Controlled Substance.” Based on the fact that S1 tested positive for being under the influence while working at the facility, there is sufficient evidence to support the allegation of Conduct Inimical; therefore, the allegation is deemed Substantiated at this time. A $500 immediate civil penalty is assessed today. The Administrator was informed that additional civil penalties might be assessed based on Health and Safety Code 1569.49(e) and 1569.49(f). Pursuant to Title 22, California Code of Regulations, the following deficiencies are cited (refer to LIC 9099-D). Exit interview conducted, appeal rights discussed, and a copy of this report issued.

Staff are prohibiting resident from receiving family phone calls. On the allegation that the staff are prohibiting the residents from receiving phone calls, the Reporting Party’s (RP) concern is that the R1 is not being allowed to receive phone calls (on the facility’s phone) from family members. To investigate the allegation the LPA attempted to interview the family members to ascertain the information received by the RP. The LPA made three calls between 02/12/2024 and 02/16/2024 at approximately 1:21 p.m.,1:35 p.m. and 12:30 p.m., however the calls went to voicemail. LPA Urena left voicemail. On 02/22/2024, the LPA communicated with family members from approximately 10:38 a.m. to 11:10 a.m. The family members stated that on several occasions, family members attempted to communicate with R1 via the facility’s phone, however they were told by facility staff that R1 was not available, and that the staff would have R1 called them back right away. The family members added that they never received the call back as they had expected. The family members further stated that they were able to speak with the administrator on 02/05/2024, and that on this date the administrator stated that they were not aware of the calls, and that they would interview facility staff about the calls that were never transferred to R1. Finally, R1’s family members stated that after the phone call with the administrator 02/05/2024, they have been able to communicate with R1 when they call the facility. The LPA interviewed the facility’s administrator about the facility’s policy on phone calls. The Administrator stated that the facility has two cell phones available for residents’ use. If a family member/calling party calls the facility to communicate with a resident, the facility will bring one of the cell phones to the resident. Or if a resident wishes to use the cell phone, the staff will bring a cell phone to the resident. Sometimes the resident may have to wait for the cell phone to be available, if one of the two cell phones are being used. Based on the information obtained through the interviews, the facility staff did not transfer calls to residents as expected, which prevented the family members from communicating with the resident. Therefore, the allegation that staff are prohibiting resident from receiving family phone calls, is Substantiated at this time. Pursuant to Title 22 Regulations, deficiencies were cited (refer to LIC 9099-D). Citations were issued. Exit interview conducted, a copy of the report, and Appeal Rights was issued.

The LPA reviewed three Activity Calendars for the month of February. The facility offers three types of activities throughout the day: Sensory, Social, and Enrichment. The activities are designed to provide different types of engagement for residents (depending on the ability). The LPA observed a group of residents attending an activity at around 11:00 a.m. The activity was called “Brain Games”. Additionally, the Administrator provided pictures of R1 participating in at least two different activities in two separate dates. The R1’s interview revealed that the staff are very nice and do assist the R1 to walk. Based on the information obtained through interviews and record review, the allegation that the staff do not provide daily activities, is deemed Unsubstantiated at this time.

Regarding the allegation, it was alleged that staff did not refund fees according to the resident's admission agreement. Resident moved into the facility on 8/30/2023. Interviews revealed that the resident and their responsible party (RP) informed staff and moved out of the facility on 10/31/2023 without a written 30 day notice, 63 days after move in. It was confirmed that on 9/20/2023, the RP was provided a credit as a courtesy, in the amount of $6,616.77 to help the resident avoid paying rent at two different facilities during the moving transition from the resident’s previous facility to Silverado Thousand Oaks. Approximately 63 days later, the RP made the decision to move out; as such, per the admission agreement ‘Termination by Resident’ it indicates “you may terminate this Agreement at any time, with or without cause, by giving the Administrator of the Community or his/her designee thirty (30) days prior written notice of termination. You need not to cite a specific reason for termination". A written notice was not received, and the RP moved forward with moving the resident out of the facility on the same day a verbal notification was given by the RP to the facility of the resident’s plan to move out, 10/31/2023. A review of the admission agreement revealed a statement, stating that parties understand that ‘the Administrative Fee of $10,000 is partially refundable based on the time of discharge from the community, in this case the resident moved out after the 60th day of residing at the facility as they moved in on 8/30/2023 and moved out on 10/31/2023 which puts the resident in the refund window of 61-90 days following move-in: allowing a 40% refund of the Administrative Fee after a $500 fee is deducted based on the agreed terms in the admission agreement. The refund for the Administrative Fee is to be issued within thirty days (30) of submitting written notification to move-out. However, a 30 day written notice was not received by the facility and instead a verbal notice was accepted on 10/31/2023 therefore making the end of the 30 days effective December 1st, 2023. Based on the evidence received, there is insufficient evidence to support the allegation. The above allegation is Unsubstantiated at this time.

Documentation revealed that resident moved into the facility on 8/30/2023. Interviews revealed that the resident and their responsible party (RP) informed staff and moved out of the facility on 10/31/2023 without a written 30 day notice, 63 days after move in.

A review of the Admission Agreement revealed that the RP signed the admission agreement on 8/30/2023 and the resident moved in on the same day, acknowledging that “[they] parties have read and understood the Agreement, including its exhibits and attachments, and agreed to abide by the terms”. In this case the resident moved in on 8/30/2023 and moved out on 10/31/2023 without providing a written 30 day notice and instead a verbal notice was accepted by the facility on 10/31/2023 therefore making the end of the 30 days effective December 1st, 2023. which makes the RP responsible for the proceeding 30 days of fees generated for room and care, up until December 1st, 2023.
