Inspector’s narrative

What the inspector wrote

Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Julie Florio and Dina Alviso arrived unannounced, to conduct a required 1-year annual inspection continuation visit and met with Janna O'Sullivan, Administrator, and Janice Foster, Health and Wellness Director. LPAs reviewed eight resident files and 10 staff files. All resident files had required documentation. All staff files had current CPR/First Aid certificates. Six out six direct care staff files did not have the minimum required training, of which four files did not have documentation of required initial training and five files did not have documentation of required annual training. Although the food supply was sufficient at prior facility visit, LPAs documented and obtained photographs of observed food that was found left uncovered on the kitchen counter and several instances of unsealed/uncovered food in the walk-in refrigerator and freezer as well as in the dried goods storage room in the main kitchen. Documents which shall be updated include, but are not limited to, the following: All required initial and annual training including medication administration training for MedicationTechnicians. Proof of training regarding proper food storage per the Health and Safety Code for all kitchen staff. Deficiencies are cited from the California Code of Regulations (CCRs), Title 22, Division 6, and/or the Health and Safety Code. Failure to correct the cited deficiency(ies), on or before the Plan of Correction (POC) due date, may result in a civil penalty assessment. Exit interview conducted with Administrator. Appeal rights provided.
