FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

Required postings were found in the lobby and throughout the facility hallways. There were fire extinguishers throughout the facility, which were serviced 04/28/2025 and contained emergency flashlights.

The courtyard contained a raised garden bed, activities for residents, and furniture in good condition with shade. Emergency food and water were stored in an outdoor utility closet along with general storage. The LPAs also observed the emergency side exits. In the rear of the facility, the LPAs, ED, and HSD observed a window screen leaning against the building that belonged to a resident’s window above it. The ED and HSD identified the resident’s unit and had maintenance secure the window screen onto the window.

RESIDENT ROOMS: Beginning at 10:40AM, the LPAs observed ten (10) randomly selected resident rooms. Appropriate furniture and sufficient lighting were observed in the units. The LPAs did not observe signal systems installed in the resident rooms. The HSD stated that resident rooms were equipped with motion sensors that detect resident movement and potential falls, however, no system is in place for residents to call for help from their room. LPAs observed some residents wearing pendant buttons which transmit signals to the facility laptop. The HSD stated that not every resident gets a pendant. The pendants currently being used identify which resident enacted the call. At 12:30PM, the LPAs and HSD tested three (3) randomly selected pendant buttons which were not operational at the time as there were no signals received by the laptop. One (1) of the pendants flashed a red light indicating it was not operational. Staff interviews revealed that response times to pendant calls have been an issue at the facility and staff have gotten multiple warnings and in-service training to improve response times. Interviews with two (2) residents revealed concerns of the facility’s signal system and staff response times. LPAs reviewed call logs for Resident #1 (R1) between 07/01/2025-07/25/2025 and observed response times ranging from 6 minutes to 2 days. There were seventy-six (76) calls total, of which fifteen (15) were accidental repeat calls by R1, making a total of sixty-one (61) calls by R1. Call logs revealed only ten (10) out of sixty-one (61) pendant calls had response times under fifteen minutes.
