Areas of Prior Concern: -Mold odors not detected this visit. -No complaints of resident misbehavior/harassment. -Laundry room functioning properly. Present Areas of Concern A slightly drab feeling is returning to the facility, minimizing the great benefit provided by all the recent renovations. New maintenance person should help to maintain physical plant improvements. Administrative participation in resident council meetings and follow up is lacking. Discuss items from “Areas of Concern” Section as well as any changes observed during the visit. Give summary of visit with Administrator or SIC. Does the facility have needs that the committee or community could help address? This visit was a notably positive one for the committee. As stated above, several changes from our prior visit were noted, including rooms containing hazardous materials were locked, activity offerings and participation were greatly increased, and most smoking is now prohibited. New dietary, housekeeping and activities staff appear to be paying dividends. The committee observed few, if any, issues of concern. A minor concern about no desserts or second portions of meals was allayed Overall, our discussions with management were positive, and they were receptive to a suggested meeting with the committee regarding enhanced volunteer engagement.
