Inspection History
Inspection Report Summary for Meridian at Laguna Hills
The series of reports for Meridian at Laguna Hills (Facility #306005804) demonstrates a facility that has maintained compliance with California’s Title 22 regulations through multiple ownership transitions and licensing milestones. In August 2022, a COMP II interview confirmed that the new administrator, Mallika Purohit, understood all regulatory requirements for the adult residential facility and that the change of ownership process was proceeding in accordance with state rules. A subsequent pre‑licensing visit in November 2022 by LPA Ruth Martinez found the physical plant—two buildings with independent and assisted‑living units, a full‑service kitchen, and a robust emergency system—fully equipped and ready for licensure. The facility’s census at that time was 83 residents, well below its 200‑person capacity.
In July 2024, a second COMP II interview documented that Roger Endert, the appointed director, likewise had verified knowledge of the applicable regulations and that the facility remained in substantial compliance. The following month, an unannounced pre‑licensing evaluation led by the same LPA revisited the facility’s operational readiness. The census reported was 76 residents, and the evaluator noted no deviations from the previously documented safety or staffing standards. The reports consistently affirm the presence of essential amenities—such as pendant alert systems, locked storage for medications and hazardous chemicals, and an approved fire‑extinguishing system—alongside adequate staffing and training protocols.
Overall, the narrative reveals a pattern of diligent regulatory adherence, successful licensing transitions, and a stable resident population that operates within capacity limits. No significant complaints, violations, or safety concerns were recorded in any of the visits, indicating that Meridian at Laguna Hills has consistently met the department’s expectations for care quality, resident safety, and operational compliance.
