Summary
The facility failed to ensure that portable fire extinguishers were properly identified throughout the entire facility. During an observation on April 17, 2025, at 11:05 a.m., it was noted that all recessed, wall-mounted fire extinguisher cabinets lacked indicator signage. This deficiency was confirmed during an exit interview with the Administrator and the Director of Maintenance at 11:15 a.m. on the same day.
Plan Of Correction
Dunwoody Maintenance staff will install indicator signs over all fire extinguishers by 5/23/2025. These signs will be checked quarterly as part of our quarterly safety inspections by the Maintenance Manager or designee. All maintenance mechanics will be inserviced on this by 5/23/2025.
