25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Holly Williams arrived at Norris Senior Home 342700194 for a plan of correction visit. LPA Williams stated the purpose of the visit. A brief interview was conducted with the facility staff person at this time. This LPA requested that the facility staff person go ahead and contact the facility licensee. Von Vega came to the house and met with LPA Williams.
The purpose of this visit was to follow up on the deficiencies that were cited from a prior annual visit conducted on 11/6/2024. This visit was to follow up on the shed in the back yard where the employee's are living. In an interview on 11/6/24, Von Vega said they would move the bed out and would try to get the shed permitted.
On 2/13/2025 in an interview, Vega stated that they were waiting for the fire clearance and that is the reason the shed has not been permitted. Vega informed LPA Williams to wait for the permit before the fire clearance which they did not get. LPA Williams informed Von Vega on 11/6/2024 that they could not have anyone sleeping out in the shed and the furniture would have to be moved out. When LPA arrived on 2/13/25 the furniture is still in the shed and employee's are still sleeping in the shed.
LPA Williams learned that a resident room is now used as a staff room. If the resident room will be used as a staff room a request will need to made to the Department. LPA Williams informed Vega that Vega is required to submit a new LIC200, new facility sketch, and a new fire clearance.
In an interview, Vega stated that they are waiting for a contractor to come out to turn the garage into a living room for staff. LPA Williams informed Vega that they have to write a letter to the Department about the new construction and it has to be labeled staff room on the facility sketch and obtain a permit and new fire clearance.
This facility is being cited per 22 CCR sections 87305(a).
