Summary
The facility failed to ensure that smoke barrier doors met the requirements of the Life Safety Code (LSC). During observations, surveyors found that the smoke barrier doors near room 203 and by the 300 wing nurses station leading into the dining room did not completely close and latch to achieve a smoke-tight fit as required. These deficiencies were confirmed by the Maintenance Director at the time of discovery. No information about specific residents, their medical history, or their condition at the time of the deficiency was provided in the report.
