32 | [CONTINUED FROM LIC 9099]
LPA observed, and manager interviews confirmed: There were a few areas of lift between sidewalk slabs, likely caused by either tree roots or movement of underlying earth. These areas represented potential trip hazards to seniors/elderly. LPA and managers agreed that these gaps were close enough that they could be remedied/smoothed with a concrete grinder. There were also a few areas of paths on the facility campus that were not well lit at night. There were also multiple outdoor light bulbs which were non-working and needed to be replaced. Prior to today’s visit, Licensee had installed one (1) additional outdoor light, but manager interviews, supported by LPA observation, showed that five (5) more of these units were needed to cover other areas.
Based on records and interviews, a preponderance of evidence exists to show the Licensee did not maintain outdoor walkways in safe condition. The allegation was therefore Substantiated, and one (1) deficiency was cited for it per California Code of Regulations, Title 22 (refer to the attached LIC 9099-D page). A Plan of Correction was jointly developed with the Licensee.
An exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Adrian Guillen, to whom a copy of this report, the LIC 9099-D page, and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22) were provided. |
