25 | On this day, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kevin Saborit-Guasch made a scheduled visit to the facility for the purpose of conducting a pre-licensing inspection. LPA was greeted and granted entry by Evan Tran, administrator.
An initial application for a license to operate as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly was received by the Department on December 18, 2023 for a capacity of six non-ambulatory residents.
