The rules that apply to this facility.
State requirements with the exact regulation citation, plain-language explanation, and a question to ask on tour. Rules this facility has been cited for appear first.
Plain language
Because a facility markets dementia or Alzheimer's care, state law mandates higher training standards: 12 hours of initial dementia training (6 hours before a staff member works independently with residents, 6 more within the first 4 weeks), 8 hours of annual dementia in-service every year thereafter, and an administrator must include 8 hours of dementia-specific continuing education in every 2-year recertification cycle. Training must cover individualized care plans, behavioral expressions, appropriate supervision, and the facility's dementia care philosophy.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jessica Cho arrived unannounced on a Case-Management visit for the purpose of issuing a deficiency. LPA met with Administrator (Admin) Tyana Fisk and explained the reason for the visit. During the annual inspection conducted on September 18, 2025, LPA observed structural modifications were found within the facility. A partition wall was constructed within the garage designating one side as an office and the other as a resting area for the caregivers evidenced by the stacked mattresses and personal belongings. The current garage layout per review of the facility sketch submitted to the Department was not approved by the Fire Marshall which shows that the space was functioning as a garage. Facility is not in compliance with the fire clearance, therefore a deficiency and an Immediate Civil Penalty are being issued. An exit interview authorized by Administrator Tyana Fisk, was conducted with Caregiver Evelyn Macalino, and a copy of this report including the appeal rights were provided at exit.
