Facility Evaluation Report

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Chinwe Nwogene conducted an unannounced case management visit to increase the capacity per licensee request. LPA met with Licensees, Sarai Marcelin and Lorena Maharaj and explained the purpose of the visit.

Licensees requested for a capacity increase from 45 to 60 clients. A Fire Clearance was approved on 2/7/2023 for 45 ambulatory and 15 non-ambulatory clients. Facility sketch on file shows sufficient square footage in the facility and activity rooms to accommodate the requested capacity. LPA Nwogene discussed the facility sketch with Licensee as well as the proposed changes to the facility capacity. LPA Nwogene and Licensee Marcelin toured the interior/exterior of the building and visually inspected the facility. LPA Nwogene confirmed facility has an exit door to the outside of the facility. LPA Nwogene additionally confirmed that there are sufficient bathrooms in the facility to meet Title 22 requirements for ratio of clients to bathrooms.

The physical plant is ready for increase in capacity. LPA will submit file for capacity increase approval. The final approval of capacity increase is contingent upon LPM's final file review. Licensee will be notified by LPA once capacity increase has been approved by licensing. If capacity increase is approved, new license will follow in the mail after phone notification by LPA with Licensee.
