receptionist is working. If a resident needs money for the weekend, they would have to withdraw the money
on Friday. Sometimes the facility runs out of money to dispense to the residents.
On 10/9/2025 at 9:45AM, an interview with Business Office Manager (BOM) #51 revealed that the resident's funds are distributed by the day receptionist Monday through Friday, from about 9AM to 4PM, or whenever she leaves for the day. A representative from the business office can also distribute resident funds during office hours, Monday through Friday, from 10AM to 4:30PM, if the receptionist is not available.
There is no money distributed after business hours or on weekends. If a resident needs money for the weekend, they must request it on Friday. The Surveyor expressed the concern that the facility does not provide ongoing access to their funds and that the facility cannot restrict the resident's access based on the time of day.
In addition, BOM #51 stated that the facility recently ran out of petty cash one day in October to dispense to
the residents. Residents seemed to be taking out more money than in past months. BOM #51 informed the Surveyor that the business office will ensure there is enough petty cash available to accommodate the resident monetary needs.
