25 | Licensing Program Bruce Jacobs conducted a case management visit at the facility to discuss incident reports to be submitted to the Department. LPA met with Administrator Katrice Collins and the purpose of the visit was disclosed. Licensing received information from the Local Health Department that resident(s) had tested positive for an infectious disease and this information was not reported to the Department by the facility. The facility confirmed that they have not had any recent positive cases and all cases were reported, with the last one being on 8/16/21. The Administrator stated that the neighboring Skilled facility with a similar name has had cases and might have been confused with the Assisted Living facility. LPA called Department of Public Health and left a message, but the call was not returned by the conclusion of the visit. LPA will further follow-up with DPH.. Upon further review it was determined that the lab did detect a positive case on 9/2/21, but had not notified the facility until the facility inquired into the report, test results and lines of communication on tis date. The facility was never notified by the lab of a positive test result.
No deficiencies are issued at the time of this visit. |
