1 violation cited
AI-Generated Summary
State inspectors found that the memory care wing's exit door alarm system failed to audibly alert staff when doors were opened, and all other exterior building exits were also unalarmed. This created a serious elopement risk for cognitively impaired residents, and was connected to a February 2024 incident where a memory care resident with severe cognitive impairment was found outside the building unsupervised. The facility lacked any written policy governing door alarm responsibilities. Following the March 6, 2024 inspection, the facility updated its alarm system to audible alerts, revised related policies, and completed staff education. A revisit on April 4, 2024 confirmed all deficiencies were fully corrected.
