Summary

The facility failed to maintain the protection of electrical systems in wet locations, specifically in the basement laundry room. During an observation, it was noted that an electrical outlet was located within six feet of the washing machines, which is considered a wet location. This outlet was not equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle, which is a requirement for safety in such environments. The maintenance supervisor confirmed the deficiency during an interview conducted at the time of the observation.

Plan Of Correction

Ground fault circuit interrupter receptacles were placed in the basement laundry rooms February 4, 2025. Education was provided to the Maintenance Director by the Administrator January 24, 2025 regarding the replacement of an interrupter receptacle to be placed within 6 feet of a water source. An audit will be conducted by the Maintenance Director to ensure that all receptacles that are located within 6 feet of a water source will be GFCI receptacles. The audit will be conducted by the Maintenance Director monthly for 4 months. The audit will be monitored by the Administrator. Results of the audit will be presented at the quarterly QAPI meeting and recommendations will be implemented.
