Cobwebs were present on the outside of numerous windows on the second floor of the facility. An access grate in the ceiling, located in the tunnel between the first floor residents' quarters and the exit door, was rusted. These cosmetic imperfections affected Resident #26, and had the potential to affect more than a limited number of residents. Room identifiers: #202, #203, #304, #205, #206, #207, #208, #209, #210, #211. Facility census: 59. Findings include: a) Resident #26 An interview was conducted with Resident #26, on 10/14/14 at 11:30 a.m. She said she did not like to see spider webs on her window. She said the spider webs had been there for a long time. Observation revealed the presence of numerous cobwebs located on the outside of her window pane. b) Rooms 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, 208, 209, 210, 211 Observations, on 10/14/14 at 11:30 a.m., revealed the presence of cobwebs on the outside window panes in rooms 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, 208, 209, 210, and 211. On 10/14/14 at 11:50 a.m., an interview was conducted with the maintenance supervisor. He said this was the first he had heard of this issue. He said maintenance was in charge of the upstairs outside window washing, and they cleaned those windows about twice a year. Upon inquiry, he said those outside windows were most recently cleaned this spring. He produced a pest control log book to show the facility had a pest control program that also treated for [REDACTED]. c) Observation, on 10/15/14 at 9:30 a.m., found a rusted metal grate in the ceiling located in the tunnel between the first floor residents' living quarters and the exit door. An interview was conducted with the maintenance supervisor on 10/15/14 at 10:30 a.m. He said the metal grate was in the ceiling because sometimes the heat pipes got hot and sweated, causing water to leak onto the ceiling tile below. The facility removed the ceiling tile in that spot, and inserted a grate. He agreed the grate was rusted. He said they would correct the issue. 2018-05-01
