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.

105 to 120 degrees F. But water temperatures measured at 106.6 degrees F in bathroom by room #2, and 111.7 degrees F in the kitchen which is within the allowable range of 105 to 120 degrees F. Licensee advised due to facility having 2 water heaters water has to be turned on in the laundry room in order to get hot in those rooms measuring out of regulation. LPA advised water must be hot within a reasonable amount of time, at least within 2-3 minutes of hot water being turned on. LPA discussed with licensee that a resident is not going to know or even have access to the laundry room in order to turn the water on so that they can get hot water to come out of faucet (deficiency cited, see 809D).


Per licensee, facility has a plan to complete an expansion, but construction has not started as they have not received building permit. Licensee and drafter of blueprints went to the city of Santa Rosa's Building Permit building and showed the preliminary sketches, but that is as far as they have gotten in the process. LPA advised that LPA has concerns of potential disruption to residents in care, due to noise that this project could cause. LPA requested written plan to be submitted to CCL prior to start of the expected construction along with copy of building permit from the City of Santa Rosa. The written plan should address how the facility will ensure the health and safety of residents in care while the construction occurs, as well as materials and equipment handling to ensure they are inaccessible to residents in care. Staff will be required to continuously remind and check all residents to make sure that they are not going to the construction site and notify their responsible parties. Facility would like capacity increase from 6 to 9 residents after expansion complete. LPA advised once fire clearance is granted LPA will return to facility to complete inspection for capacity change.

Fire extinguishers were last inspected 9/30/24. Smoke/Carbon Monoxide detectors located throughout the facility were operational. Facility’s last quarterly disaster drills were conducted 8/15/25. Facility has a backup generator for use during a power outage.

At approximately 12:00pm LPA conducted review of five [5] staff records. All required documentation present. However, LPA and licensee discussed training materials.

LPA will send licensee link of approved training vendors and licensee will determine if she will continue conducting her own training or instead use an approved vendor.

At approximately 1:00pm LPA conducted a review of five [5] resident records. All required documentation present. 1/2 rail orders all on file..

At approximately 2:00pm LPA and Admin conducted a spot check of medication and medication records. Medication is centrally stored in a locked cabinet. LPA and licensee discussed the maintenance and requirements of a PRN MAR and that it must include the date and time given, the dosage, and the outcome or resident response. LPA discussed with licensee important components of maintaining the Centrally Stored Medication log (CSML). She must maintain current physician's orders and those orders must match what is written on the CSML and the information on the prescription bottle must also match what is recorded on the CSML. LPA and licensee did spot check of Quetiapine for R1. Per prescription and CSML, quantity of pills was 90. Date started was 7/20/25. R1 takes one pill daily at bedtime. So, total remaining in bottle should have been 59 pills. However, LPA and licensee got count of 37 pills (deficiency cited, see 809D).

Updated copies of the following documents were requested for facility file and are to be submitted to CCL within 30 days of this visit:
