25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPAs) Anna Bueno and Bernadette Allen made an unannounced visit to the facility. The purpose of the visit was to conduct a required annual inspection, with an emphasis on infection control due to the COVID-19 pandemic. LPA met with staff Ranulfa Regis and Eladia Plenos who confirmed that there are currently no cases/exposures of COVID-19 within the facility. Administrator Glenn Bernal was phoned by staff but was not able to come to the facility.
During the inspection, LPAs Allen and Bueno conducted a brief tour of the facility and made observations pertaining to the facility's infection control measures. LPAs observed live in staff members were not fitted with face coverings. The facility has a designated infection control lead person who has been tasked with tracking all COVID-19 cases and/or suspected cases, ensuring PPE supplies are maintained, cleaning and disinfection provisions are in adequate quantities, and that staff are trained in the proper use and disposal of PPE. The facility has a plan in place which follows Community Care Licensing Division guidelines for COVID-19 testing, isolating/quarantining residents, and properly caring for residents with COVID-19 positive results and/or exposures. The facility also has a plan in place to monitor residents regularly for any changes in condition and to subsequently notify the resident's physician and emergency personnel in the event the client presents any COVID-19 symptoms.
LPAs Allen and Bueno observed no health and safety concerns at the time of visit. Based on observations made during today’s inspection, no deficiencies were cited per Title 22, Division 6, of the California Code of Regulations. An exit interview was conducted where this report was discussed and a copy of this report was also provided to Ranulfa Regis at the conclusion of the inspection. |
