25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Araceli Canela arrived unannounced to conduct a Required - 1 Year inspection and met with Administrator Jully Cartel. There are currently 4 residents in care with 3 staff at the time of inspection. This facility is licensed for 6 non-ambulatory residents, of which 1 can be bedridden and a hospice waiver approved for 3 of the residents. There are currently 3 residents receiving hospice services.
LPA toured facility and grounds and observed all required signs posted in common areas, but poster PUB 475 was not in the required size. Infection control practices are present. Facility has a 30-day supply of PPE. Facility has also submitted their Infection Control plan, which is a part of their Plan of Operation.
Facility was found to be at a comfortable temperature with all exits free from obstruction. Facility has at least two days supply of perishable and one week of non-perishable foods and items are stored properly. Fire Extinguishers were fully charged, and have proof of service on 10/24/2023. Smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors were tested and operational. Fire drills are conducted and the last one was documented on 10/23/2023. Water temperature in the resident bathroom was tested and found to be at 109 degrees F. and is within appropriate range of 105-120 degrees. Exit doors have auditory alarms to alert staff, but dining room sliding door will need new batteries soon. The bedrooms are all furnished as required, but LPA went over sufficient lighting in all resident rooms and some rooms may require an additional lamp. Bathrooms were clean and sanitary with non-skid mats/floors and grab bars. The outside grounds have plants, fruit trees, and provide easy access for the residents to enjoy fresh air. The 3 sheds in the back yard are for storage of equipment only and are pad locked. LPA went over requirements for yard gates that will need to be able to self close and latch as they have dementia residents and regulation applies.
Resident and staff files were reviewed and resident files were in compliance. Staff files lacked proof of annual required training and CPR/1st aid was expired.
