25 | Licensing Program Analysts (LPA) Christine Dolores conducted a scheduled technical assistance visit and met with Executive Director (ED), Michael Fountain. During visit, LPA conducted a FaceTime tour of the facility with PCC, Lori Kopplinger and LPM, Sarah Yip. The purpose of the visit was to provide technical assistance to prevent and mitigate the spread of COVID-19 at the facility. ED reports 7 COVID-19 positive residents and 2 COVID-19 positive staff. 2 COVID-19 positive residents will be cleared today.
LPA, LPM, and PCC toured the facility inside and out to include the entry point, screening station, common areas, dining room, activity room, common bathroom, staff break room, PPE station, and courtyard.
During today's tele-visit, the following recommendations were made to the facility by PCC Lori Kopplinger:
1. Add complete COVID-19 symptoms to the visitor/staff screening log
2. Remove chairs in the activity room to ensure social distancing
3. Remove chairs in the dining room to limit 2 per table, to ensure social distancing
4. Remove all tablecloths in the dining room area for best practices in reducing the spread of the virus
5. Maintain a clean and dirty section for PPE supplies outside each COVID-19 positive room. Place trash bin with lid closer to the room, and place PPE cart away from the trash bin to reduce cross-contamination
6. Replace donning / doffing poster outside of each COVID-19 positive room
7. Post maximum capacity sign outside of the break room
8. Designate a separate break room for staff caring for COVID-19 positive residents, to be located in the courtyard or in the private dining room area
