25 | On May 27, 2022, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Komal Charitra, conducted an unannounced case management visit. LPA met with Licensee, Maria Comfort and explained the purpose of the visit.
During the complaint investigation 14-AS-20220412141821, LPA Charitra cited the facility for Section 87307(a)(2)Personal Accommodation and Services,as a result of the facility utilizing the garage attic as a sleeping area for staff. The facility’s plan of correction was to submit a new facility floor plan to CCLD to request for a new fire clearance.
On May 20, 2022, CCLD received the fire clearance request back from San Mateo Consolidated Fire Department, and it was indicated that the garage attic and the shed in the backyard is not a suitable living accommodation for staff. In addition, the fire department also indicated that the shed in the backyard is not a permitted structure. According to the Licensee, it was indicated that she immediately moved the staff members out of the shed in the backyard. Staff will no longer be permitted to sleep in the shed and it will be utilized as a storage/office room for the Licensee. In addition, the garage attic was observed to be used as a storage space.
Deficiency of the Residential Care Elderly California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6 is observed and cited on a LIC809D. Failure to correct the deficiencies may result in civil penalties.
