Summary
Surveyors observed that the facility failed to ensure operational ventilation systems in resident bathrooms for four rooms (106, 108, 114, and 115) out of fifteen occupied rooms on the 100 hall. During an inspection with the Maintenance Supervisor, it was noted that the ventilation system did not draw a single ply of toilet paper to the surface of the ventilation cover in these bathrooms, indicating the systems were not functioning properly. The Maintenance Supervisor confirmed these findings and also acknowledged that no routine checks had been conducted to verify the operational status of the ventilation systems.
