Facility Evaluation Report

LPA Tryon visited the facility to follow up regarding issues that were found and raised by Alta Regional Center. The following issues were noted:

- Bathrooms in the facility were worn, mold in the showers dirty walls, chipping paint, dirty toilet. On this date LPA noted that the one bathroom has just been completely rebuilt/renovated by the facility landlord and is now all new and clean. The other bathroom is still to be done, but the mold in the tub has been cleaned up, tub re-calked, toilet cleaned.

Exposed wires in the ceiling. LPA did note that there are some wires coming out of the ceiling in older bathroom and another room. Licensee explained this is where an old smoke detector system was previously installed. The wires have been capped off. They are not attractive, but are high and do not appear to be a hazard at this time.

Urine smell in bathroom. LPA did not note any odor in the bathrooms during this visit.

Missing carpet. There are a few areas in the hallways where carpets were pulled out. Apparently at the time of the Alta Visit the floors were bare, unfinished cement. However, since that visit the floors have been sealed/painted, so now have a surface and appear acceptable.

Closet doors missing. There is no Title 22 requirement for closet doors, only that there be sufficient closet space. During this visit, LPA noted that the licensee has put curtains over closet openings as per agreement with the Regional Center.

No box springs on beds. The beds were designed to be slept on without needing box springs; but this is a violation of Title 22 Regulation. Deficiency cited. The licensee went online during this visit and purchased box springs; deficiency will be cleared.
