25 | An initial copy of this report had been generated under an incorrect facility number (306002428) and was amended to the right facility. On 08/16/2022 at 2:15pm, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kevin Saborit-Guasch made an unannounced visit to the facility in order to conduct a required annual inspection. LPA was greeted and granted entry by caregivers Edwin Abellana and Cathy Berdan after explaining the purpose of the visit.
At approximately 2:20pm, LPA accompanied by caregiver toured the physical plant of the facility. There are currently five (5) residents in care, three (3) of which are receiving hospice care. The residents are observed relaxing in the common area or in their respective bedrooms and appear clean and well taken care of. The four (4) bedrooms include all necessary components. An ample supply of linen is observed. The two (2) shared bathrooms are equipped with grab bars and slip mats. Facility is clean, sanitary and free of odors in all areas inspected.
Sharp instruments are stored in a kitchen cabinet secured by a magnetic lock, along with the centrally stored medication and resident files. LPA observed a sufficient supply of food and water present. Cleaning supplies are located in the locked attached garage as well as in a locked cabinet under the kitchen sink, secured by a key lock. LPA observed the facility has COVID-19 Precautions posters and all required department postings. The Administrator certificate for Russell Venanzi is expired and will need to be replaced with a current print-out showing current status as an administrator. The facility has an adequate supply of PPE. Several fire extinguishers are present and charged. Exits are equipped with functional sound alarms indicating an egress.
Caregiver Abellana is correctly cleared and fingerprinted in Guardian, however the staff association for Cathy Berdan has been terminated at the time of the visit in spite of being cleared. LPA provides guidance on the licensee's responsibility to maintain accurate and up-to-date staff association.
