Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Ashley Smith arrived unannounced for a post-licensing visit at 11:15 a.m. The LPA met with Executive Director Brad Stewart and explained the reason for the visit.

The LPA and Executive Director toured the physical plant areas inside and outside to ensure there are no health and safety hazards and facility is in compliance with Title 22 Regulations.

All indoor and outdoor passages were clean and free of obstruction. There was hands-free sanitizer interspersed throughout the common grounds.
