caregiver that the refrigerator will need to be cleaned. LPA’s did not observe sufficient supply of fruits and vegetables as well as insufficient supply of 7-day non-perishable food. LPA Spaeth informed the licensee of the deficiency.

Approximately 11:54 am LPA Avetisyan requested the assistance of caregiver to test the smoke/carbon monoxide detectors. During the test LPA Avetisyan and Stamps observed that the 2 smoke detectors and 2 carbon monoxide detectors were not operational. A discussion was held with the licensee regarding the zero-tolerance deficiency as well as concerns of the alarms on all exit doors not working. The licensee informed the LPA’s that the alarm system was disconnected by staff approximately 2 months ago due to issues with the system.

At 12:15 pm, LPA Avetisyan conducted review of resident facility and hospice files. LPA requested to see the facility file for resident 2 various times which the licensee and caregiver could not locate. While reviewing the hospice files, LPA Avetisyan did not observe a current hospice care plan for both residents.

Approximately 12:30 pm LPA’s conducted a tour of the backyard and observed an electric table saw, screwdriver, dis-assembled bed, dirty mattress, 2 Hoyer lifts and various other items. Administrator was reminded that these items are a safety issue for the 2 residents in care.

Approximately 1:00 pm LPA’s requested to review the medication records for resident. Licensee and staff searched but could not locate the file.

Approximately 1:30 pm LPA’s conducted review of staff files and observed that staff do not have current first aid/CPR, have not received training since 2017.
