6400.82(f) | The bathroom on the third floor of the home did not have a trash receptacle. | Each bathroom and toilet area that is used shall have a sink, wall mirror, soap, toilet paper, individual clean paper or cloth towels and trash receptacle. | The trash receptacle typically kept in the bathroom was placed around the corner in the bedroom while the bathroom floor was being cleaned and was mistakenly not returned to the bathroom. This violation was corrected on site at the time of inspection. Staff will receive additional training from Program Specialist on the requirements outlined by regulation 6400.82(f) during the March 2015 Monthly Staff Meeting. Residents will also be reminded of the need for a trash receptacle in their bathroom. |

6400.110(e) | The three story home serving three individuals does not have interconnected and audible smoke detectors on the three floors of the home or an automatic fire alarm system that is audible throughout the home. | If the home serves four or more individuals or if the home has three or more stories including the basement and attic, there shall be at least one smoke detector on each floor interconnected and audible throughout the home or an automatic fire alarm system that is audible throughout the home. The requirement for homes with three or more stories does not apply to homes licensed in accordance with this chapter prior to November 8, 1991. | Current smoke detectors at the site were previously installed by ADT and were operationally interconnected at the time of our last monthly Fire Drill held on 2/17/15, but at the time of testing during inspection the alarm only rang at the detector being tested. According to ADT, this may be due to the fact that the wires in the fire alarm panel had sustained damage. A First Alert 2 in 1 Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Alarm was purchased and installed by WRC Maintenance staff on Friday March 6th, 2015. This alarm is wirelessly interconnected to communicate with alarms located on other floors of the residence. This alarm also includes an exclusive talking feature that announces the type and location of danger, as well as a photoelectric sensor that stops most false alarms. Maintenance has instructed staff on how to use the one button test alarm function. Photographs of the alarm itself, as well as the receipt of purchase have been submitted for your review. |
