32 | Interviews with residents in care who stated they did not have concerns about the care provided at this facility.
Review of relevant records showed that R1 was transported to the emergency hospital on January 23, 2026, after an unwitnessed fall that occurred while at this facility. Medical records documented that R1 suffered facial injuries, swelling, and traumatic subdural hematoma. Records also showed that R1 had a history of dizziness, weakness, cognitive impairment and was considered a fall risk. Facility records documented that R1 used walkers and wheelchairs and required assistance with mobility. Additionally, records did not indicate R1 requires one-to-one care or supervision while sleeping in their room.
Although R1 suffered a serious injury after the fall, interviews and record reviews did not show that facility staff neglected or failed to provide the required supervision and care. Records showed staff were aware of R1’s care needs and that R1 was ambulatory and able to rest/sleep in their bedroom without continuous supervision.
Based on the information gathered throughout this investigation, there was insufficient evidence to prove the allegation that neglect/lack of care and supervision resulted in R1 being hospitalized. Therefore, the allegation was unsubstantiated.
Note that aA finding that the complaint allegation is unsubstantiated means that although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove that the alleged violation occurred.
An exit interview was conducted with Monalisa, and a copy of this report and appeal rights were provided.
