25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Elizabeth Hamilton conducted an annual required licensing inspection. This annual inspection was focused on infection control due to the COVID-19 pandemic. LPA was greeted at the front door by Caregiver, Josephine Ison and granted entry after identifying herself. LPA discussed the purpose of the visit. This facility serves six (6) residents ages 60 years and over; all of whom may be non-ambulatory and one (1) of whom may be bedridden in room #1 only. Hospice waiver approved for two (2).
During today's visit, LPA toured the facility, and verified compliance with infection control practices. LPA and Caregiver Ison reviewed the facility’s COVID-19 Mitigation Plan. LPA observed one central entry point; routine symptom screening initiated at entry for staff, residents and visitors; a sign-in policy enacted for all visitors; face coverings worn by staff; hand sanitizer/hand washing stations readily available; a designated visitation area; and an adequate supply of PPE and disinfectants. LPA discussed the Provider Information Notice (PIN) regarding updated guidance on visitation.
Based on today's visit, no deficiencies were observed in the areas evaluated above. An exit interview was conducted with Caregiver Ison and a copy of this report along with the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC 9058) was provided via email. An electronic receipt of confirmation was requested to be sent by the Licensee upon receipt. |
