Summary
The facility failed to maintain the required headroom clearance in a basement corridor, as observed during a survey. On July 29, 2025, it was noted that the headroom in the basement corridor measured approximately 6 feet 2 inches, which is less than the required 6 feet 8 inches above the finished floor. This deficiency was confirmed during an interview with the Administrator, who acknowledged that the headroom did not meet the standard specified by NFPA 101 for means of egress. The deficiency affected one of two smoke compartments within the component.
