25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jessica Cho arrived at Activcare Laguna Hills to conduct an unannounced Required 1 Year Visit with an emphasis on Infection Control. At 10:13am, LPA Cho was greeted and granted entry by Receptionist Danna Miranda. LPA completed the Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) screening procedure and met with Executive Director (ED) Patricia Miller. There are no active COVID-19 cases as of today. LPA observed a mounted infrared thermometer and facility documents daily temperatures of visitors and completes the COVID-19 screening questionnaire via the tablet. LPA observed the required COVID-19 precautionary signs were posted throughout the facility. The Complaint Poster (PUB475) met the size requirement. The facility is licensed for seventy-two non-ambulatory residents of which seven may be bedridden and has a hospice waiver for fifteen. There are currently thirty-two residents living in the facility of which four are receiving hospice care.
Approximately 10:30am, LPA Cho conducted a tour of the physical plant with ED Miller. During the inspection the lights were turned off due to testing of the smoke/carbon monoxide detectors conducted by Louis Halper from First Choice Fire Protection. Due to the limitations, LPA was unable to get the reading of the hot water temperatures in the residents' rooms during the visit. LPA observed all residents sitting in the Great Room participating in activities which provided plenty of natural light. LPA observed all common areas and randomly selected and inspected a total of four resident apartments one per wing. The resident bedrooms had the required furnishings. The resident bathrooms were checked. Grab bars were secure, the toilets worked properly, the showers were free of mold/mildew, and non-skid mats were in place. Residents that shared a bathroom with a roommate did not have hand washing signs. All bathrooms had sufficient hand soaps and paper towels. Hand washing signs, hand soaps, and paper towels were observed in the public bathrooms in the common areas. Perishable and non-perishable food supplies were checked and adequately stocked at the time of the visit. The fire extinguishers were mounted, fully charged, and serviced on 09/06/2022. |
