Inspection Report Summary for Vaca Valley Living

The California Department of Social Services Community Care Licensing Division conducted a series of unannounced inspections at VACA VALLEY LIVING A MEMORY CARE COMMUNITY FACILITY (facility number 486830735) between August 2021 and June 2022. The first visit on 19 August 2021 revealed a critical safety lapse: a plywood board had been nailed across the main exit, preventing residents from opening the door and delaying the auditory alarm. Administrator Jamie Healer was absent, and Care Coordinator Jennifer Ramos noted that the obstruction was a response to a malfunctioning alarm system. The licensing program analyst (LPA) Katrina Walters documented the defect, issued a $500 civil penalty, and required an immediate plan of correction to ensure all exits remain unobstructed.

A subsequent inspection on 21 December 2021 focused on infection control amid the COVID‑19 pandemic. The facility had a previously approved mitigation plan, adequate PPE stock, and documented vaccination records for residents and staff. All staff complied with mask and testing protocols, and no deficiencies were cited. The visit reinforced the facility’s compliance with pandemic regulations and confirmed that entrance signage and visitor policies were up to date.

Between April and June 2022, the inspections shifted toward resident safety and fall prevention. A case‑management visit on 5 April 2022 highlighted an inadequate number of activity staff for 20 residents, many of whom were fall‑risk. The LPA and Care Coordinator discussed adding staff and enhancing supervision, but no deficiencies were recorded. An office meeting on 6 June 2022 reviewed a new fall‑assessment checklist and ongoing incident reports; again, no deficiencies were cited. A follow‑up case‑management visit on 14 June 2022, conducted with Administrator Jamie Healer, aimed to review the progress of the implemented fall‑prevention measures. Although the full details of the visit’s outcome are not provided, the pattern suggests that the facility has addressed the initial exit obstruction, maintained robust infection control, and is actively working to improve staffing ratios and fall‑risk monitoring.

Across all reports, VACA VALLEY LIVING demonstrates a responsive approach to regulatory findings, with immediate corrective action following the exit obstruction penalty and ongoing attention to resident safety. The absence of new deficiencies in subsequent visits indicates that the facility has largely met the expectations of the Community Care Licensing Division for safety, infection control, and staff competency.
