Plan of Correction
A letter will be sent by July 14, 2017 to Middleburg's landlord by the Division Director stating that the building hot water system exceeds licensing guidelines. The letter will request that the system be replaced by August 30, 2017. Follow up phone calls will be made by the Administrative Manager to the facility and the landlord weekly until the repairs have been completed. In the event the repairs are not completed by August 30, 2017, the Division Director will notify the Central Region Director for further possible legal action. Until the repairs are complete, hot water warning signs have been posted in the bathroom effective 7-6-17. |
