25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Patricia Velazquez conducted an unannounced visit to Jasmin's Care Home. The purpose of today's visit was to conduct a Required 1 Year inspection. LPA Velazquez was allowed entry into the facility and met with Caregiver Laura Perdomo. Administrator (AD) Manuel Perez arrived shortly after LPA's arrival. The facility is licensed for 6 non-ambulatory residents. There are currently 5 residents living in the facility. The last emergency disaster drill was conducted on April 3, 2021.
At 2:53 PM LPA Velazquez conducted a tour of the physical plant along with AD Perez. The 1 story home consists of 4 resident bedrooms with 2 bathrooms. There are no staff bedrooms as AD Perez indicated he employs awake staff at night from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM. The facility also has a living room, dining area, and kitchen. LPA and AD observed 4 bottles of medications were stored on top of a cabinet in the dining room easily accessible to residents. Two of the 4 bottles had prescription Amlodipine Besylate belonging to a resident which AD verified. At LPA's direction AD immediately removed the medications and locked them in the medication cabinet. The 5 residents in the facility appeared well-groomed and well cared-for. The resident bedrooms had the required furnishings, bed linens, and closet/drawer space to accommodate each resident comfortably. LPA Velazquez observed a postural support bar on one of the resident beds. AD Perez indicated he did not have a written physician's order for the postural support bar. LPA and AD observed an exit door in a resident's room did not have an auditory alarm and the facility has residents with Dementia. AD verified the sliding glass door did not have an auditory alarm pursuant to Title 22 regulation. The sliding glass in the living room also had an inoperable auditory alarm which AD verified. Resident bath towels and personal hygiene supplies were adequately stocked. Resident bathrooms were checked. Toilets and water faucets worked properly, grab bars were secure, showers were free of mold/mildew and a non-skid surface or mat was in place. LPA Velazquez tested the hot water temperature in the resident bathrooms and the temperature measured at 109.0 degrees Fahrenheit in the first bathroom and at 115.3 degrees Fahrenheit in the left sink and at 114.0 degrees Fahrenheit in the right sink of the second bathroom. |
