A minimum of one week of nonperishable food and at least two days of perishable food were available, with additional storage in a spare refrigerator and freezer located in the garage. The facility was maintained at a comfortable temperature. Medication was inspected and observed to be centrally stored in a locked storage cabinet located in the kitchen.
