Based on interviews with 5 out of 5 staff indicated they were aware there was inconsistency with the water temperature.

Administrator Charles stated the technician is scheduled to be at the facility today 12/24/2024. Administrator Charles stated they had a back up plan to take residents to a sister community if the shower issue persisted. LPA Mendivil observed the kitchen sink temperatures to be at 68 degrees.
