Inadequate Room Space for Residents
Summary
The facility failed to provide adequate room space for residents, as observed during an environmental tour. Specifically, eight of fifteen resident bedrooms did not meet the required 80 square feet per resident, and one of five single bedrooms did not meet the required 100 square feet. The rooms in question were identified as rooms 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, and 116, each measuring 143 square feet for two residents, and room 102, measuring 81 square feet for a single resident. Despite these deficiencies, interviews with residents revealed no complaints regarding room size, and the health and safety of the residents were not affected by the room dimensions.
