LPA reviewed the facility's fire clearance issued by the Orange County Fire Authority on November 30, 2023 as well as the facility's Emergency and Disaster Plan and Infection Control document. LPA observed that the fire clearance does not include an explicit mention of the delayed egress in use to exit the memory care unit into the secure courtyard as well as to exit the courtyard onto the facility's parking lot. LPA provided a consultation on the requirement from Title 22 of the California Code of Regulations Section 87705(k)(2) regarding the Care of Persons with Dementia indicating that :"The licensee shall ensure that the fire clearance includes approval of delayed egress devices". Licensee will request an update of the fire clearance to the Fire Marshall in order for licensing to be approved.

Proof of liability insurance was provided during the visit. LPA requested and obtained the list of staff members as well as the current resident roster. Five staff records and five resident records were randomly selected and reviewed to include all necessary components.

An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report along with two Technical Assistance Advisory Notes were provided to a facility representative. This report was amended to add the expected corrections required ahead of the new license being issued. A signed copy will be obtained and kept in the facility file.
