Facility Evaluation Report

Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Christine Dolores and Grace Donato arrived unannounced to conduct the facility's annual inspection. LPAs met with Training Coordinator Jhanelle Guico, Office Manager, Remedios Bose, and Program Director Michelle Villarreal.

During visit, LPAs toured the day program to include the activity rooms, cafeteria, offices, hallway, and exterior. Fire exit routes and passageway were free and clear of obstruction. Fire extinguishers last serviced on 06/29/2022. Carbon monoxide detector is in operating condition. Inside temperature maintained at 67 - 70 degrees Fahrenheit.

LPAs observed four transportation vehicles whose registrations were up-to-date. The transportation vehicles contained a fire hydrant, disinfectant solutions, and first aid kit.

Activity rooms observed clean and equipped with supplies. Cafeteria supplied with multiple snacks, clean water and cups for drinking. Bathrooms equipped with hand washing signs, hygiene products, and paper supplies. Hot water temperature in the bathroom was maintained at 98.7 degrees Fahrenheit. Based on interview, the water heater recently broke down during the winter storm. During visit, staff purchased a new water heater tank and verbalized plans to install the new water heater tank.

LPAs observed more than ten long planks of wood about 5-6 feet long near the exit route of the cafeteria. The area was accessible to clients in care. The long planks of wood contained multiple nails that stuck out of the wood. Facility staff immediately relocated the planks of wood to a secured area. Program Director states the planks of wood were from a fallen fence due to the winter storms. The Program Director is working with the neighbor to repair the fence. LPA observed the fence was temporarily secured using tarps. SEE LIC809-C.
