During today’s visit, LPA met with Maryalice Garcia, Director of Operations and Stacie Knepp, Program Administrator.
The facility is an Adult Day Program housed in a two story industrial building with an approved fire clearance of one hundred fifty ambulatory clients. The first floor has five classrooms, an art studio, a sensory room and multipurpose room; as well as men and women bathrooms. There is a large health and fitness area with machines, a partitioned art classroom, lunch tables, arcade area and indoor basketball court. The second floor has one classroom and houses the administrative staff. The facility currently has a census of ninety-five clients in care.
During today’s visit, LPA toured the facility and inspected the physical plant, including but not limited to testing hot water temperature in bathrooms and testing auditory devices on all exits. The hot water temperature measured between 105.2 and 105.4 degrees Fahrenheit and all smoke detectors were operational and are tested annually by the property management. LPA observed security cameras throughout the perimeter of the facility that are visual only. There are several fire extinguishers and First Aid Kits in all classrooms with the required elements which include a First Aid Manual. The fire extinguishers are charged and were serviced on November 15, 2023. The facility’s last fire drill was conducted on June 26, 2024.
LPA noted lockers are provided for each client and refrigerators and freezer are secured for the Snack Shack. Clients bring their own lunches and snacks but a Snack Shack is available during break times for clients to practice handling money and life skills. All cleaning supplies and emergency supplies were secured. LPA observed clients in their classrooms with instructors. Clients are responsible for their own medications and are not handled by the Day Program. (Continued on LIC 809-C) |
