Summary of Investigation
Community Provider
I. Initial Allegation(s):
It was discovered that the person served had been dispensed fifty-six, one
milligram Ativan (Controlled Substance), which is now unaccounted for.
These medications were delivered to the supported living office at OGC on
3/15/12 and there is no record where the meds were sent from there or if they
were destroyed.
II. Conclusion(s):
The preponderance of the evidence does not support the allegation that the
person served was exploited, in that an unknown person(s) took fifty-six, one
milligram Ativan. A violation of the DIDD Provider Manual, Chapter 18,
18.2.a.2, for Community Providers, is not substantiated.
III. Recommendation(s):
