This deficiency was confirmed during an exit interview with the Administrator and the Maintenance Director, who acknowledged the presence of the trouble code on the fire alarm panel.

Step 2 The maintenance team was educated to ensure that the fire alarm system including the fire panel is monitored, tested, and maintained in accordance with the NFPA 70 requirement. Step 3 The maintenance director/ designee will audit the fire panel weekly to ensure safe operation. Findings will be reviewed during QAPI meeting.
