25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jennifer Semin arrived at the facility unannounced after completing a COVID-19 Risk Assessment Screening for the facility via telephone. LPA met with Administrator Dyan Summerell and advised her of the purpose of the visit, and that the Annual Inspection will be limited to Infection Control only.
LPA went over COVID-19 best practices for infection control and prevention with Ms. Summerell who is successfully incorporating the facility's Mitigation Plan. Residents have hand sanitizer available to them and the bathrooms were stocked with hand soap and paper towels. LPA observed the facility to have multiple postings throughout the facility for cough etiquette, proper hand washing procedure, social distancing, and emergency contact information for local fire department has been updated.
LPA requested to inspect the facility's Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) supply, which was located at the central entry point for convenience. LPA observed a large supply of PPE items such as gloves, face shields, gowns, surgical masks, N95 masks, disinfectant and hand sanitizer supply and is inaccessible to residents. LPA and Ms. Summerell discussed creating a box, or similar, to have a supply of PPE ready that would be dedicated for isolation room, along with a trash can to put inside and outside of an isolation room.
LPA inquired as to if staff have been fit tested for N95 masks, and Ms. Summerell stated all staff have been fit tested and can log on to their account view their electronic card.
An exit interview was conducted, and this report was discussed and provided to Ms. Summerell. |
