JOHNSTOWN Colo. — , who claim the state announces their inspections prior to showing up.
He says Johnstown Heights is given days to prepare for what should be surprise inspections, per state code. Another former employee says because of the pre-announced inspections, senior leaders at Johnstown Heights had the opportunity to muffle the message to the state. However, state regulation lays out inspection best practices, highlighting,"The licensee shall provide accurate and truthful information to the Department during inspections, investigations, and licensing activities."
“I'm not surprised they found everything I thought they'd find… inadequate staffing, inadequate safety measures,” said BJ Potts, a veteran nurse who resigned from Johnstown Heights two weeks before Dickson’s death after being assaulted by patients.
