Summary
Facility staff failed to maintain an effective pest control program, as evidenced by the presence of flies in three out of thirteen resident rooms on the third floor. In one room, numerous flies were observed, and further investigation revealed a trash can with a dark substance at the bottom that appeared to attract the flies. In another room, flies were found, and a dark, lumpy substance identified as human waste was discovered on the floor under a portable toilet near the foot of a bed. In a third room, flies were seen on the privacy curtain and on a pillow on one of the beds. These findings were confirmed through direct observation and staff interviews.
