Summary
Exit and directional signs in the facility were not displayed in accordance with regulatory requirements, as observed during a survey. Specifically, the emergency exit sign outside the Saginaw Room Dining space had an incorrect emergency egress configuration, resulting in the North side of the facility lacking an emergency exit from resident spaces. Additionally, the exit configuration did not match the emergency placards displayed in the corridors. These findings were confirmed through an interview with the maintenance director at the time of observation. This deficiency could affect 35 occupants in the event of an emergency evacuation, as noted in the report.
