An interview with the Administrator Andrea Scott, revealed the facility has had issues with the hot water for over a week starting in the beginning of April and it was being worked on by their Maintenance person and parts had to be ordered, staff were boiling water to give residents sponge baths at bedside. LPA reviewed and obtained a copy of receipt #086969 dated 3/8/2026 to “Terry” for $120.00 to look at water heater. Attempts to interview maintenance person and Licensee were attempted but not successful. LPA tested water temperatures for Buildings #1 and #2 and hot water is working with caution signs posted. Administrator Andrea Scott had to leave before finalizing the report, gave permission for staff to sign the report.

Based on the interviews, the allegation is substantiated. The facility will be cited for Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, Article 05, Section 87303(a)(e)(2) and will be issued Civil Penalties of $500.

An exit interview was conducted with Angela Caban and a copy of this report, LIC809D, LIC421IM and Appeal Rights was provided.
