Facility Evaluation Report

On 7/8/24 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Triel Ellen Lindstrom arrived at the facility unannounced to conduct a required one year annual inspection. The LPA met with and interviewed Administrator Prithika Singh and explained the purpose of today's visit. The Administrator accompanied the LPA on a tour of the facility.

The LPA toured the facility interior, including the lobby, small and large dining rooms, and resident rooms. The lobby is the main common area for residents. Residents were gathered watching a movie and eating ice cream. There were several couches and tables in good repair in this room. Then the LPA toured the small and large dining rooms off the lobby. The dining rooms contained four and six tables respectively, with enough seating for residents. The LPA inspected ten bedrooms. The bedrooms contained the required furniture in good repair and are clean and odor-free. Each bedroom has a private bathroom with grab bars. The LPA measured the temperature of the hot water in a resident bathroom; the water was one hundred and sixteen degrees Fahrenheit. The windows and sliding glass doors were in good repair.

The LPA toured the Kitchen. The kitchen was clean, organized, and odor- and -pest free. The LPA inspected the pantry and freezers and observed a seven-day supply of nonperishable food and a two-day supply of perishable food. Food is stored properly and rotated on a weekly basis. The stove hood was last serviced in November 2024 and was clean.

The LPA toured the hallways. There were fire extinguishers in several locations in the hallway, as well as the kitchen. There was a smoke detection system that automatically closes several doors in the common areas, sounds an alarm, and indicates which zone a fire is in. There is an overhead sprinkler system. The smoke detectors, sprinkler system, and fire extinguishers were serviced by Jorgensen Co. of Modesto on 11/23/2024. Required notices were posted in the hallways, including personal rights, emergency disaster plan, and ombudsman contact information. The thermostat in the common areas was set at 71 degrees.
