Facility Evaluation Report

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Christine Dolores arrived unannounced to conduct a case management visit and met with Administrator, Vicki Pacheco and Case Manager, Isabel Garza. LPA explained the purpose of the visit was to look into a concern regarding the designated smoking area.

During visit, LPA observed the facility's exterior to include the backyard and front area. The facility originally had five scheduled time slots for smoking. The original dedicated smoking area was located in the facility's backyard.

On 08/03/2022, the Administrator received an email and call from the City of Morgan Hill regarding a concern on second hand smoke traveling into the neighbor's property. On the same day, the Administrator removed the ash trays located in the backyard and designated a new smoking area located on the drive way at the front of the facility, facing Depot Street. The facility has reduced the scheduled time slots for smoking to three times a day. The clients were informed of the new schedule and the new smoking location. LPA observed the smoking schedule posted throughout the facility. Administrator stated to have received good feedback of the new smoking area from the neighbor.

LPA obtained the facility's LIC500, resident roster, and new smoking schedule.

No deficiencies were cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22.

This report was reviewed with Administrator, Vicki Pacheco, Peer Partner, Vickie Romero, and Case Manager Isabel Garza and copy of the report was provided.
