Areas of Concern Exit Summary
Are there resident issues or topics that need follow-up or
review at a later time or during the next visit?
Due to the change in ownership, we will want to monitor
how the care might change over time.
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?
Gutters were being cleaned at time of our arrival.
Sanitation Grade of 100 clearly posted.
The Resident Rights posted in the back hallway has the
wrong name listed as Ombudsman but the one in the front
is correct.
**The biggest change is that on November 7th, Louise sold
Villines Rest Home to Adorable Senior Living. She is
acting administrator at this time but will retire soon. We
commented to ourselves and to her that she was as relaxed
as we've ever seen her and was quicker to smile. No staff
was lost as a result of this changeover.
