Inspection Report Summary for The Montebello Academy
The most recent inspection on April 22, 2024, identified deficiencies related to staff training and medication security. Earlier inspections were mostly free of deficiencies, with no issues found in several surveys conducted during 2020, but the initial licensing survey in January 2020 noted multiple deficiencies in staff training, medication storage, and documentation. Inspectors cited recurring themes involving incomplete staff orientation and training requirements, as well as unsecured medications for residents who self-administer. The complaint investigation tied to the latest inspection was unsubstantiated regarding the complaint itself, though deficiencies were found in other areas. The pattern suggests some ongoing challenges with staff training and medication management, while other areas have shown compliance over time.
