Brooklyn, New York Survey Completed on 03-19-2025

Penalty

The penalty, as released by CMS, applies to the entire inspection this citation is part of, covering all citations and f-tags issued, not just this specific f-tag. For the complete original report, please refer to the 'Details' section.

Summary

The facility failed to ensure that the soiled linen room was protected with proper fire resistive material. During a life safety survey conducted over two days, a penetration in the hydraulic motor room located in the basement was observed. This penetration consisted of a 1ft x 1ft area wall cut out filled with pink fiberglass material, which is not an appropriate fire/smoke sealant. The Maintenance Director acknowledged the issue and indicated that the material would be removed and replaced with suitable fire/smoke sealant.
