Fire extinguishers were observed throughout the facility, and all were fully charged and purchased on 03/16/2026. Fire alarms and fire doors were tested three (3) separate times between 03:21 PM and 03:24 PM. On the first test the fire door separating the living room from the resident rooms failed to disengage the magnetic latch and properly close the door. The Administrator informed LPA that if the AC was running the latch would not disengage. The Administrator turned off the facility’s AC and tested the fire alarm again. On the second test the fire door successfully disengaged the magnetic latch but due to friction between the bottom of the door and the floor the door failed to close and left the passageway to the resident rooms mostly open. On the third attempt the alarm was tested and the facility fire door successfully closed. LPA notified the Administrator that the fire door failing to close due to friction and the use of the facility’s AC constitutes a violation of the facility’s fire clearance. LPA informed the Administrator that this is a zero-tolerance violation and an immediate civil penalty in the amount of $500 will be assessed on today’s date (04/16/2026).
