LPA Gurriere completed the required COVID-19 testing protocols, and a daily self-screening questionnaire for symptoms of COVID 19 infection to affirm no COVID-19 related symptoms. The administrator was contacted to complete a facility risk assessment. LPA Gurriere ensured that hand sanitizer was applied before entering the facility and the following Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) was worn: Surgical Mask. Additionally, LPA Gurriere was screened by administrator upon entering the facility. On 09/07/21 it was reported that a resident (Resident 1) left the facility. The resident was later found two blocks away. The administrator was able to meet with the police and bring the resident back to the facility. Currently, the facility is monitoring the resident with 15 minute checks, keeping him in the common area and giving the resident an identification badge in case he were to slip out of the facility again. An exit interview was conducted, and a copy of the report was given to the administrator. No deficiencies cited.
