The California Department of Social Services (CDSS) has issued a Provider Information Notice (PIN) regarding the recall of Kidde TruSense Smoke and Combination Smoke/Carbon Monoxide Alarms. The alarms can fail to alert consumers of a fire, posing a risk to healthcare facilities such as nursing homes. The recall affects Kidde Model Series 2040, 2050, 2060, and 2070 alarms sold between May 2019 and September 2020. Healthcare facilities should check the model numbers of their alarms and replace any recalled devices. Affected consumers can contact Kidde to register for a replacement. No injuries or incidents related to the alarms have been reported so far. Facilities should sign up to receive future PINs and monitor the CDSS website for updates.
