LPA Brown met with Administrator Ahmad Abdallatef and advised of the purpose of the visit, and that the Annual Inspection will be limited to Infection Control only.

LPA Brown will be issuing a Technical Assistance Advisory Note instead of a deficiency due it being difficult to access face shields at numerous points during the COVID-19 pandemic. LPA Brown advised the facility to look online for items missing from their PPE supply kit, as CCL and Inland Regional Center may not have these items to supply them with.

LPA Brown inquired as to if staff have been fit tested for N95 masks, and Administrator Ahmed Ahmad Abdallatef informed LPA Brown that at this time staff have not been fit tested. LPA Brown will be issuing a Technical Assistance Advisory Note during today's inspection for staff not being fit tested for N95 masks.
