Water temperature in sink accessible to residents in care measured at 158 degrees F in the kitchen, LPA could not get a hot water reading in the bathroom across from room six, the water never got hot after running the water for 4 minutes which is not within the allowable range of 105 to 120 degrees F (deficiency cited, see 809D).

Large fence surrounding the perimeter of the facility is also in disrepair, boards separating from fence and nails exposed. Vents on side of house have gaps and black film substance. Per LPAs conversation with Admin they agree to repair. LPAs reviewed fire clearance facility sketch and observed exit gate to be identified as an emergency exit. LPAs observed exit gate to be broken, does not close or open all the way. However, because this is identified as a fire clearance exit, it must offer access for residents as an escape in emergency situations.(deficiency cited, see 809D).
