What part of the facility does licensing have the authority to inspect?

Licensing authorities have the mandate to inspect the entire facility to ensure compliance with health, safety, and operational regulations. This comprehensive inspection includes all areas where care and services are provided, such as living quarters, administrative offices, common areas, and kitchens. By inspecting the entire facility, licensing can assess overall functioning and adherence to standards that contribute to the residents’ well-being and safety. Inspections often help identify any potential issues that may affect residents and allow for timely corrective actions.
