PUYALLUP — The state Department of Social and Health Services has fined the operator of an adult care home in Puyallup for unsanitary conditions.
The department said an inspector was overwhelmed by the odor of urine in August 2011 when visiting the South View Adult Care home where nine dogs were kept along with three patients.
The News Tribune reported that the fine could be waived if operator Wendy Bell installs new flooring.
