25 | On this day, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kevin Saborit-Guasch made a scheduled visit to the facility for the purpose of conducting a pre-licensing inspection. LPA was greeted and granted entry by Celfa Aronne, administrator.
An initial application for a license to operate as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly was received by the Department on February 5, 2024 for a capacity of six non-ambulatory clients. This is a change of ownership with four residents already in care.
LPA accompanied by administrator toured the physical plant. The facility is a one-level home with a frontyard, backyard and attached garage. There are four individual bedrooms and one shared bedroom. Each of the bedrooms include all necessary components of furnishing including a light, chair, storage space for personal items and a full-size bed as well as a supply of linen and bedsheets. There are two bathrooms on the premises, one of which is mostly designated for use by the residents. Water temperature was measured to be within acceptable range. Common living spaces are present and a device connected to the internet is present for the use of the clients in care. Facility is clean, sanitary and free of odors in all areas inspected. Required posted documents are observed to be present, with the exception of the facility's theft and loss policy. Policy will be posted shortly and documentation provided to LPA.
Kitchen equipment is present and operating as required. Sharp items and cleaning supplies are confirmed to be secured. A sufficient supply of perishable and non-perishable food is present as required by Title 22 Regulations. The centrally stored medication storage is located in a secure cupboard. The garage is also used for additional storage of food along with emergency and back-up supplies. Staff and client records were reviewed and confirmed to include all necessary components.
