Step 1 –The facility updated the Emergency Preparedness Communication Plan to include a method for sharing information from the emergency plan with residents and their families or representatives. A communication letter outlining the facility's emergency communication process was created and implemented.



Step 2 – The communication notice was posted in common areas of the facility including the lobby, nurses' stations, and activity areas to ensure residents and visitors have access to the information. The emergency communication notice was also added to the facility admission packet to ensure all new residents and responsible parties receive the information upon admission.



Step 3 –The Administrator or designee provided education to department heads and admissions staff regarding the updated Emergency Preparedness Communication Plan and the process for distributing the communication notice to residents and responsible parties.



Step 4 – The Administrator or designee will audit admission packets and posting locations weekly for four (4) weeks and monthly thereafter for two (2) months to ensure the communication notice remains in place and included in admission materials. Results will be reviewed through QAPI, and corrective action will be taken if concerns are identified.

Electrical Systems - Essential Electric System Maintenance and Testing
The generator or other alternate power source and associated equipment is capable of supplying service within 10 seconds. If the 10-second criterion is not met during the monthly test, a process shall be provided to annually confirm this capability for the life safety and critical branches. Maintenance and testing of the generator and transfer switches are performed in accordance with NFPA 110.
Generator sets are inspected weekly, exercised under load 30 minutes 12 times a year in 20-40 day intervals, and exercised once every 36 months for 4 continuous hours. Scheduled test under load conditions include a complete simulated cold start and automatic or manual transfer of all EES loads, and are conducted by competent personnel. Maintenance and testing of stored energy power sources (Type 3 EES) are in accordance with NFPA 111. Main and feeder circuit breakers are inspected annually, and a program for periodically exercising the components is established according to manufacturer requirements. Written records of maintenance and testing are maintained and readily available. EES electrical panels and circuits are marked, readily identifiable, and separate from normal power circuits. Minimizing the possibility of damage of the emergency power source is a design consideration for new installations.
