Environmental Cleanliness and Safety Deficiencies
Penalty
Summary
The facility failed to maintain a clean and safe environment for residents, staff, and the public, as evidenced by multiple deficiencies observed during an environmental tour. Dirty and discolored ceiling vents were found throughout the East Hall, Center Hall, [NAME] Hall, and the dining room. In the Center Hall, exposed electrical wiring was observed both across from a resident room and hanging from a ceiling tile. Additionally, the dining room had a baseboard heating unit cover that was not attached. During an interview, the Maintenance Director acknowledged awareness of the exposed wiring and stated that the covers had been knocked off about a week prior and had not yet been replaced. The vents throughout the facility were also noted to be in need of power washing or replacement.
