Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Natalie Ibarra and Paola Guerrero made an unannounced visit to conduct an annual inspection, with emphasis on infection control. LPAs met with administrator David Tamo and explained the purpose to today's visit. Administrator accompanied LPAs on a tour of the facility.

LPAs toured the facility and made observations pertaining to the facility’s infection control measures.

The residents have hand sanitizer available to them throughout the facility, and the bathrooms were stocked with hand soap and paper towels.

LPAs requested to inspect the facility's Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) supply. The facility has a full thirty (30) day supply of PPEs such as gloves, face shields, gowns, surgical masks, N95 masks, disinfectant, and hand sanitizer. LPAs observed one central entry point and a sign-in has been designated for screening that includes a vaccination verification/negative COVID test check, temperature check, and symptom check. The facility has a designated infection control lead person who has been tasked with tracking all COVID-19 cases and/or suspected cases, cleaning and disinfection provisions are in adequate quantities, and that staff are trained in overall infection control. The facility has a plan in place which follows Community Care Licensing guidelines for when and how long to test staff and residents for COVID-19, when and how to isolate/quarantine residents, and when to schedule cleaning and disinfection times of high traffic and frequently touched areas. The facility also has a plan in place to monitor residents regularly for any changes in condition and to subsequently notify the client's physician and to notify all emergency agencies in the event of any COVID-19 related and/or suspected illnesses.
