25 | The San Bruno Regional Office - San Jose Unit held a joint conference call today with the CA Department of Public Health (CDPH) and Santa Clara County Public Health Department (SCCPHD) to collaborate with the facility and ensure concerns regarding COVID-19 Infection Control and Mitigation procedures are addressed and that the facility is able to comply.
Community Care Licensing Division (CCLD) Regional Manager (RM) Vivien Helbling, Acting Assistant Program Administrator (AAPA) Krystall Moore, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Gladys Kuizon, CDPH Health Facilities Evaluator Nurse (HFEN) Rebekah Bird-Wohlgemuth and SCCPHD Nurse Melissa Schilling met with facility representatives Kurt Gursu (Executive Director), Jason Walthour (Regional Vice President), and Jen Johnson (National Director of Care Management).
The following were discussed today:
1. Communal dining: SCCPHD Nurse Schilling clarified that communal dining in the Memory Care Unit is permitted at this time due to the entire unit being treated as a COVID-19 cohort.
2. Daily Line List: CCLD provided facility with names of individuals involved in monitoring the facility and should receive the daily line list sent out by the facility.
3. Daily symptom checking: CDPH HFEN and SCCPHD clarified that temperature and oxygen level checks must be done twice daily for residents for COVID-19 monitoring. Blood pressure checks should be done, if medically necessary (e.g. prior to medication administration).
