25 | Licensing Program Analyst Bertozzi arrived unannounced to conduct a Case Management inspection and met with Administrator, Rosemary Jordan.
Facility has requested a change of capacity to add additional apartments as part of their second phase. All apartments are designated for residents who are independent. The facility does not plan to add apartments for residents in assisted living and memory care until their third phase.
LPA initiated a tour of the remaining building identified in Phase 2 around 3:30pm and observed the following: "The Meadows" is a building separate from the main building that has 20 independent resident apartments that has not yet been approved by the local fire district. Based on tour, "The Meadows" meets the requirements of licensing but will need final approval by the fire district before residents may move in. LPA observed a temporary railing at the exterior sidewalk. Per conversation with facility representatives, the railing will be installed by the end of this week. Once railings are installed, Administrator agrees to submit a picture of railing to LPA.
LPA and Administrator discussed maintaining safety while area is still under partial construction. Additionally, Administrator will provide a written plan indicating how potential areas of risk including but not limited to fountains, bioswales, heaters and compacter will remain safe for residents in care.
Once LPA has received pictures of the permanently installed railings and an approved fire inspection report, facility will be approved for an increase in capacity to include "The Meadows". |
