LPA toured the facility with Ms. Fuston including common areas, resident rooms, bathrooms, kitchen/food storage, dining room, activity rooms, hallways, laundry, etc. The facility has just been completely re-decorated throughout the interior and is clean and in "brand-new" condition. Common areas, sitting areas are nicely furnished with new furniture and fixtures. Rooms are clean and include appropriate furniture as per Title 22 Regulations. Activity areas are furnished appropriately and the facility has materials and equipment for activities. The facility keeps individual files on each resident with appropriate documents and forms available.

The facility appears to be in compliance with regulations at this time.
