Inspection Reports for Peoples Senior Living

The follow-up inspection found no deficiencies and confirmed that previously cited deficiencies regarding construction review services and licensed bed capacity criteria were corrected.

The facility failed to submit required applications for review and approval of room conversions and modifications, including converting office spaces to resident bedrooms, adding walls to apartments, and converting single occupancy rooms to double occupancy. This unapproved construction placed residents at safety risk and was an uncorrected deficiency from a prior inspection.

Complaint investigation triggered by a reported COVID-19 outbreak. Failed practice identified related to infection control and lack of N-95 fit testing program. Citation(s) written.

The follow-up inspection on 05/13/2024 found no deficiencies and confirmed that the facility meets Assisted Living Facility licensing requirements. Previous deficiencies related to infection control and lack of a fit testing program for N-95 masks were corrected.

The complaint investigation included three allegations: 1) a resident was restricted from using the phone and having private conversations, 2) a resident had lost weight and needed dental work, and 3) a social worker withheld information from a resident. The phone restriction was substantiated and corrected, the dental work and weight loss issue was addressed with an appointment and transportation arranged, and the social worker allegation was unsubstantiated.

The investigation found that some facility staff were limiting a resident's access to the phone, which was corrected and staff were educated. The concern about the social worker withholding information was unsubstantiated. The facility failed to meet Assisted Living Facility requirements related to the communication system, resulting in a citation.
