Upon review LPA Gardner discovered the administrator certificate is expired. The facility will be cited for not having a valid administrator for the facility.
LPA Gardner went over COVID-19 best practices for infection control and prevention with Mr. Vidrio. Residents have hand sanitizer available to them and the bathrooms were stocked with hand soap and paper towels. LPA Gardner observed the facility to have multiple postings throughout the facility for cough etiquette, proper hand washing procedure, and social distancing. LPA Gardner requested to inspect the facility's Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) supply; Mr. Vidrio was unsure where the PPE was located in the facility. LPA Gardner was unable to verify if the facility has a 30-day supply of PPE items such as gloves, face shields, gowns, surgical masks, N95 masks, disinfectant, and hand sanitizer supply. LPA Gardner discussed obtaining a full 30-day supply of PPE, as well as creating a cart, or similar, to have a supply of PPE ready that would be dedicated for isolation room, along with a trash can to put inside and outside of an isolation room. LPA Gardner inquired as to if staff have been fit tested for N95 masks, and Mr. Vidrio was unsure if they had been fit tested yet. LPA Gardner will be issuing a Technical Assistance Advisory Note during today's inspection for staff not being fit tested for N95 masks and for not having a 30-day supply of PPE. All residents and staff are practicing all other COVID-19 precautions, which minimize the risk of them contracting COVID-19.
Based on the observations made during today’s visit, three (3) deficiencies were cited per Title 22, Division 6, of the California Code of Regulations.
An exit interview was conducted, and this report was discussed and provided to Mr. Vidrio, along with a copy of the TA Advisory Notes, LIC809C, LIC809Ds, LIC421BG, and appeal rights |
