What the inspector wrote

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Magda Malcore conducted an unannounced case management visit to the facility, based on deficiencies observed during complaint investigation # 56-AS-20231107154843. LPA Malcore met with Lisa Tolentino, Administrator and discussed the purpose of the visit. The facility currently retains residents with Dementia. LPA observed the front door and back door alarms were not working. The Administrator stated the alarms are working but the back door alarm is turned off during the day because it causes a disturbance to the residents. The Administrator stated that front door alarm is always on. LPA requested the Administrator to open the front door to test the alarm. The Administrator opened the door and no sound was heard. LPA observed the Administrator and another staff moving the alarm switch to different positions until the sound of the front door alarm was heard. Based on LPA observations, a deficiency is being cited during today’s visit. An exit interview was conducted where reports LIC809 and LIC809-D were discussed. Copies of the reports with appeal rights were provided to the Administrator at the conclusion of the visit.
