Summary

The facility failed to post signs at the entrance indicating the presence of COVID-19 cases, despite having two residents who tested positive for the virus. Observations on 9/26/2025 confirmed that there were no postings at the facility entrance to inform staff, visitors, or family members about the presence of COVID-19. Review of the facility's COVID-19 Line List showed that one resident tested positive on 9/23/2025 and another on 9/25/2025. Interviews with the Infection Preventionist confirmed that no public notifications or postings were made after these positive cases were identified. The Director of Nursing acknowledged that the facility should provide outbreak postings to safeguard the public, staff, and visitors. Review of the facility's own COVID-19 policy indicated that visual alerts and notifications should be posted at entrances and strategic locations, and that the facility would follow CDC and CDPH guidelines for notification. Despite these policies, the required postings were not present at the time of the survey.
