25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Michael Tea conducted an unannounced visit. The purpose of today’s visit was to conduct the Annual Required inspection. At around 1:30 PM, LPA Tea was greeted and granted entry into the facility by Licensee (LE) Kevin Dinh and explained the reason for the visit. Facility is licensed for six non-ambulatory residents, with an approved hospice waiver for six, and one maybe bedridden in Room #3. Currently there are no residents in care during today's visit. The licensee hopes to have residents for the facility during this year once the facility is approved for the Assisted Living Waiver (ALW) program.

The facility is a one-story home that consists of four resident bedrooms, two private, two shared, two full bathrooms, living room, family room, dining area, kitchen and garage.

Resident bedrooms had the required furniture, bed linens and closet/drawer space to accommodate each resident comfortably. Resident bathrooms were checked. Toilets and water faucets worked properly. The grab bars were secure, and shower was free of mold/mildew. Water temperature measured around 107.9 Fahrenheit degrees. Resident bath towels, toiletries and personal hygiene supplies were adequately stocked at time of visit. Common areas were clean and clear of hazards, doorways were free of obstructions. First aid kit had all the required elements including dressing, bandages, tweezers, thermometer, and scissors. Kitchen was inspected. Kitchen appliances are operational during today's visit. Sharps are locked and stored in a secured drawer in the kitchen. LPA also observed toxin substances inaccessible to residents in care, locked and secured underneath the sink. The fire extinguisher is fully charged in the kitchen area. LPA toured the outside grounds and there is ample seating with shade. Backyard has a nice garden with different plants and fruit trees.
