Mr. Gaylord Z. Thomas, Executive Director, led the review, discussion and possible action regarding the vacating of licenses of Long Term Care Administrators who failed to timely renew. (List attached to agenda).

Motion was made by Ms. Susan Smith, seconded by Ms. Lisa Pever, to approve the vacating of licenses of Long Term Care Administrators who failed to timely renew. Motion carried with voting as follows: Affirmative – Dr. Susan Barnes, Mr. Collin Coburn, Dr. Thomas Essex, Ms. Susan Smith, Mr. Tony Fullbright, Ms. Diane Henry, Ms. Lisa Pever, Mr. Alan Phillips, Mr. Nathan Raith, Ms. Jonna Warrick, Ms. Nancy Poteete, Dr. Keith Swanson and Ms. Jacki Millspaugh.

Ms. Amanda Everett, AAG, Prosecuting Attorney for the Board, led the review, discussion and possible action regarding OSBELTCA V. ADAM STEPHENS, License No. 3316, Case No. 19-052 (HB). Presentation of proposed Agreed Order. Possible motion to convene into and exitfrom Executive Session pursuant to 25. O.S. § 307(B)(7) (discussing any matter where disclosureof information would violate confidentiality requirements of state or federal law) AND/ORpursuant to 25 O.S.§307(B)(8) (engaging in deliberations or rendering a final or intermediatedecision in an individual proceeding pursuant to Article II of the Administrative Procedures Act).Possible action. This case was referred to us by the Oklahoma State Department of Health,therefore, Ms. Diane Henry, as the representative of this department, will be required to recusealong with the Committee that reviewed the case which was Ms. Nancy Poteete and Mr. CurtisAduddell, who is no longer on the Board. Ms. Henry and Ms. Poteete turned off their cameras andmicrophone during the presentation of this case.

Mr. Thomas Grossnicklaus was present to represent and advise the Board.

The Department of Health notified this Board of the results of a survey that had Substandard Quality of Care survey results. There were a number of issues raised on the survey and Ms. Everett boiled the administrator’s role down to 3 violations stemming around allegations of abuse:

Failure to report – It was well documented that no report had been filed. Failure to investigate – again, when the administrator learned of it, he not only did not report it, but he didn’t even look into it. And, Failure to take action to rectify the problem

4/14/2021 OSBELTCA Board Meeting Page 9

OK ST BD OF EXAMINERS FOR LONG TERM CARE ADMS 3-3-2021

6

The Survey Report (Form 2567) documented that the administrator stated to the surveyors that he was not aware that allegations must be reported if they were not substantiated. His terse response to the Board regarding this issue was that turnover was high at this facility (5 administrators in 4 years) and that the company had not given him authority to deal with staff issues appropriately ( he provided no documentation of his pleas regarding this – only referenced phone conversations) and that he was denied attempts to remedy the situation by the corporate level which he also said led to his resignation AND that he was also on vacation during the incident and survey. Yet, when he learned of the issues upon his return, the problem was that he still took none of the required steps to investigate, report or remedy the situation.

He has no prior history of discipline and agreed to the following terms:

Letter of Reprimand Fine of $400 per violation ($1200 total) 12 additional CEUS related to ethics, abuse, neglect or incident reporting Attorney fees of $1,250 This will be reportable to the NPDB and in the Board’s online Registry.

We would recommend that the Board approve this agreed order.

Motion was made by Ms. Lisa Pever, seconded by Dr. Thomas Essex, to accept the aforementioned Agreed Order. Motion carried with voting as follows: Affirmative – Dr. Susan Barnes, Mr. Collin Coburn, Dr. Thomas Essex, Ms. Susan Smith, Mr. Tony Fullbright, Ms. Lisa Pever, Mr. Alan Phillips, Mr. Nathan Raith, Ms. Jonna Warrick, Dr. Keith Swanson and Ms. Jacki Millspaugh. Negative – None. Abstaining – None. Recusing – Ms. Diane Henry and Ms. Nancy Poteete.

Mr. Curtis Aduddell was on the committee as well, however, he is no longer a Board member.

Ms. Nancy Poteete, Chair of the Finance Committee, led the review, discussion and possible action regarding the Finance Report. Ms. Poteete informed the Board that she and Mr. Thomas had attended the virtual Finance meeting, Thursday, February 18th with Ms. Dana West from OMES. Ms. Poteete informed the Board that this report would be short and sweet as all the reports balanced and that we were currently operating under budget.

Dr. Susan Barnes led the review, discussion and possible action regarding the report of the Legislative Committee. Dr. Barnes informed the Board that Senate Bill 719 did not make it out of committee and all deadlines have passed. Discussion followed.

Mr. Gaylord Z. Thomas, Executive Director, led the review, discussion and possible action regarding the Executive Director’s Report.

1. RENEWALS UPDATE: I updated you at our January meeting (3 days before the extendedexpiration date of January 30th). I was actually amazed to see that a total of 6 people renewed…all of them doing so after we left the office that Friday evening with the expiration date onSaturday). So, the updated numbers are below, adding 1 to the CAAs and 5 to the RCALs. It ismy understanding that the CAA and 1 RCAL were tax compliance issues and the other 4 RCALadministrators renewed after learning of the Board’s decision not to penalize anyone if their CEUswere short in 2020.

If we were to take a minute to look at the non-renewed numbers over this time period, we would see that 2020 was actually a pretty good year for renewals (even if we discard the first couple of years in our averages which skewed the data a little bit due to “giving” those initial licenses to people at no charge (free). The number of people who did not renew those first couple of years skewed our numbers in those lines of service a little bit and we’re still trying to get a better understanding of what “normal” numbers are for those licenses. But the following chart just pulls the number of “vacated” licenses out for a comparison by year and license type and shows that 2020 was below average for the number of licenses being vacated in all types, even discounting the skewed years. Note: 2012 was not included in the average of the “Total” column since it was only NHAs and CAAs.

Non-skewed Average: 26.00 4.50 7.33 83.33

Additionally, every year, Board members want to know WHY these people don’t renew…we have a “feel” for that and I’ve done some analysis (attaching it to this report).

2. AU UPDATE: The Spring term of AU started February 4th (first Thursday) and is set to be complete in May. We started with 32 students (26 NHA, 6 CAA…) and actually had 34 at one point but two appeared to not be ready to start yet so they’ll likely start in the next class. We already made a change in our syllabus to accommodate the weather, moving a week of pre-recorded classes to last week so nobody was on the road (we made that adjustment based on the forecast a week prior).

3. CEU AUDIT UPDATE: As mentioned, the Board decision last month may have encouraged a handful of administrators to renew. We will be starting our audits on our normal timeframe, getting the list in early March. We will provide the data from the review once we have gathered it.

4. STRATEGIC PLAN UPDATE: The one committee that has been most active this last month is the Rules/Legislative Committee. A lot of what they had “planned” to do is being put on “hold” due to SB719 requiring their attention at the moment. I just want to remind everyone that our plan is viewable online at www.focusandexecute.com and that anyone can access our plan using okexaminers as both the Username and Password (we have had this information publicly available on our website since we established this plan).

5. CABINET SECRETARY CHANGE: We were notified last week that there was a new Executive Order establishing a Secretary of Licensing and Regulation and that this Board now falls under that new Cabinet position. Susan Winchester was appointed to be the new Cabinet Secretary.

6. UPCOMING EVENTS/DATES:

Next Board Meetings –March 3rd (cancelled?), April 14th and May 26th

Email report received from DHS regarding a substantiated report of "caretaker neglect" - email received 4/9/21; DHS received the referral 2/8/21; interviewed alleged victim 2/22/21; time of incident documented as 2/5/21. Documentation appears to say that the Administrator was acting on advice of the Ombudsman. Issue is that the Resident had a POA and revoked it and the allegation is that it was neglect to have permitted the resident to have revoked that POA. It's someone's opinion that "someone" prompted the resident to revoke the POA to avoid being moved back to a SNF from the ALF where she resided and they've attributed this to the respondent somehow while at the same time documenting that she was following advice from the Ombudsman. They've also documented that the resident, per the family, is stubborn and hard to deal with. Ombudsman alleged to have been involved stated that she did not advise the resident to revoke the POA but stated that she did say that if she understood what she was doing when revoking the POA that it could be done at any time.

Notes

Received a fax detailing that respondent had been suspended pending investigation for allegations of misappropriation of multiple residents' medications (detailed on an incident report). The attachment (Part C continued) stated that the allegation was substantiated and that the respondent had resigned her position due to this finding. Atty response received'; indicated additional information may be coming (?). Verifying.

You can "rotate" this page (unfortunately, when we rotate it, it doesn't save as rotated...).

TO ROTATE IT, "right" click and a drop down menu appears... Select "Rotate Clockwise" (you will have to do that 3 times to get it right...) - and then, when you're done, one more time because it will have rotated the entire document...We will continue to try to figure this out and "fix it" on future iterations if we can.

Executive Director’s Report April 14, 2021

A. CEU AUDIT UPDATE: We conducted our annual audits as required, and per directionfrom the Board (due to the pandemic), there will not be any punitive actions taken againstanyone for failing to meet the CEU requirements in 2020, but we do have the “statistics” fromthese audits and per the Board’s direction, are sharing them as “data.”
