Regarding the allegation that staff do not ensure facility has adequate glove supplies, interviews revealed that inventory is overseen by designated staff who maintain weekly supply lists and submit orders ahead of time to avoid shortages. Staff reported gloves are stored in multiple areas throughout the facility and supplies are replenished promptly when needed. Staff stated that supply orders are placed regularly and the facility maintains stocked supply cabinets. Interviews consistently reported the availability of gloves, paper towels, hand sanitizer, and other cleaning related items.

Records review of recent supply orders dated June 15 and July 14, 2026 showed orders for cleaning materials, including gloves and hand sanitizers.

LPA observed multiple storage areas containing gloves, paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, hand sanitizers, and other cleaning supplies. No shortages were observed.

Regarding the allegation that staff do not ensure the facility is kept in clean and sanitary conditions, interviews reported that a contracted cleaning service provides professional cleaning twice per week after program hours. Staff also reported having a daily cleaning schedule assigning duties such as sweeping, trash removal, bathroom cleaning, windows, tables, sinks, and spot mopping.

Records review of the cleaning duty schedule confirmed daily assignments Monday through Friday for multiple staff, covering bathrooms, tables, sinks, trash, sweeping, and additional cleaning related tasks.

During the visit, LPA conducted a facility tour and observed no malodors and found the facility to be clean and sanitary.

Regarding the allegation that staff do not ensure a facility door is kept in good repair, interviews reported that damage to one facility bathroom door occurred due to client behaviors. Interviews stated the door was repaired promptly. Interviews reported the door now locks and functions appropriately.

LPA observed the bathroom door that had recently been repaired. The door closed and latched appropriately, and no safety hazards were observed. [Cont. on LIC 9099-C pg.1]
