On 3/31/2020, 2 staff were interviewed. 2 out of 2 staff stated back in January 2020, there was a water overflow from room 412 down to room 316 causing damage to the walls in both rooms, and to the stairwell next to room 316. The facility took action by cleaning the affected areas. An independent company was contracted to assess the situation and to provide suggestions. The facility followed the recommendation by sanitizing molded areas, removing bubbled paints, and repainted the affected areas.

Based on record review, the Limited Visual & Moisture Assessment Report reveals that the facility contracted a private company to assess the water damage on 2/18/2020. The industrial hygienist from the said company went to the facility to assess the damage in room 316 and room 412 on 2/19/2020. The hygienist did not observe any mold in room 316 but observed “visible microbial-like staining on the bathroom vanity cabinet floor in Resident Unit 412.” The hygienist made recommendation to the facility after the assessment.

Based on record review, and interviews, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met; therefore, the allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED, which means that the allegation did occur.

A deficiency was cited today as per California Code of Regulations, Title 22. See 9099-D for more information. However, the facility had corrected the deficiency prior to tele-investigation.

This report and appeal rights were emailed to ED to review and to obtain signatures.
