Licensing Program Analyst (LPA), Janira Arreola made an unannounced visit to the facility to conduct an annual inspection focused on infection control. LPA was greeted and granted entry by staff member Maryanne Agco, who was informed of the purpose of the visit. At the time of visit there was 2 staff and 4 residents present. The facility currently has zero positive or suspected Covid-19 cases.

During today's visit, LPA toured the facility and made observations regarding the infection control measures that the facility has implemented. LPA observed Covid-19 postings at the facility and advised licensee to post them around the facility. A single entry point was designated where symptoms screenings and temperature checks occur daily for all visitors, residents, and staff. The facility had a plan in place to monitor residents regularly for any changes in condition. The facility had an adequate amount of hand hygiene supplies (soap, hand sanitizer, paper towels) in all restrooms. Common areas such as dining rooms and living rooms have been modified with social distancing and masking policies. There are designated isolation rooms and a plan in place to monitor and attend to those in the isolation rooms. LPA observed a sufficient 30-day supply of PPE equipment. The facility also has a designated infection control lead and a plan in place to clean and disinfect the highly touched surfaces.
