LPAs were greeted and granted entry by facility caregiving staff and facility administrator Fatima Rivera after introducing themselves and stating the purpose of the visit.
There are currently four residents in care, two of which are receiving hospice care. LPAs observed residents relaxing in their respective bedrooms and in the facility's common living areas. LPAs accompanied by facility staff toured the physical plant. The facility is a one-story house with an attached garage. The facility has four bedrooms, currently privately occupied. There are three bathrooms throughout the facility, two of which are for use by residents. Two additional rooms on the other side of the house are for use by staff members only and inaccessible to residents.
Bedrooms appeared clean and sanitary. Full bed rails are present in two bedrooms. Residents confirmed to be receiving hospice care and plans of care reviewed to include physician orders for the postural supports.
