Facility Evaluation Report
On today's date, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Crystal Colvin and Licensing Program Manager (LPM) Joel Esquivel, met with facility representatives Melanie McCoy, Senior Director of Adult Day Services, and Kris Kacirek, North County Program Administrator, via Microsoft Teams in order to discuss recent concerns with reporting staff COVID-19 positive(s) and timely response to Licensing with requested information.
On 8/10/22, when conducting the 15-day follow-up call for a recent COVID-19 positive case, the assigned LPA discovered that a staff (S1) at the facility had tested positive for COVID-19 the week prior, which was not reported to Licensing. As of 8/18/22. Licensing had still not been able to obtain all information requested from the facility, and was being redirected back and forth between the facility site staff and headquarters staff. Licensee representatives Melanie McCoy and Kris Kacirek confirmed that all managers/supervisors will be updated on requirements for reporting COVID-19 positives to ensure that the information is forwarded to Licensing in a prompt manner.
During today's meeting it was additionally discussed that several documents need to be submitted to Licensing to document Kris Kacirek as the facility's currently appointed Administrator. Staff were instructed to email the required documents to LPM Esquivel to ensure processing. Additionally, per facility representatives request, LPA Colvin will update the facility's contact information to reflect Administrator's extension (x9311) and mobile number to be the Administrator's mobile number.
An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was provided to Administrator Kris Kacirek via email and signature was obtained.
