Comments:
A renewal inspection was initiated on 10/5/2021 and concluded on 10/20/2021. The Administrator was contacted by telephone to initiate the inspection. The Administrator/AL Director reported that the current census was 28. The inspector emailed the Administrator/AL Director a list of items required to complete the remote documentation review portion of the inspection. The inspector reviewed 3 resident records, 3 staff records, staff schedule, activity calendar, fire and emergency drills, and menus submitted by the facility to ensure documentation was complete. Two inspectors conducted the on-site portion of the inspection on 10/19/2021. An exit interview was conducted with the Administrator/AL Director on the date of inspection, where findings were reviewed and an opportunity was given for questions, as well as for providing any information or documentation which was not available during the inspection.

Information gathered during the inspection determined non-compliance(s) with applicable standards or law, and violations were documented on the violation notice issued to the facility.
