Inspection Report Summary for Aldersly

Aldersly, a 741‑type assisted‑living facility in San Rafael, passed its 2021 required‑year inspection with no deficiencies noted. Inspectors found the environment clean, fire safety equipment up to date, and adequate food and hygiene supplies. The facility also demonstrated readiness to address emerging COVID‑19 protocols, with PPE on hand and an N95 fit‑testing program underway.

In February 2022, an unannounced case‑management visit focused on a capacity increase. The inspector confirmed that the newly constructed rooms—five private and five shared—were compliant with regulations, and a fire‑safety inspection had already approved the expansion from 122 to 137 beds. No deficiencies were cited, and the increase was effectively authorized.

However, later inspections in April and July 2022 uncovered a pattern of compliance gaps. The April visit revealed that a resident had fallen without the incident being reported to the licensing agency, and that required incident reports were missing from the facility’s records. The inspector cited a Title 22 reporting‑requirements deficiency, highlighting a potential risk to resident safety and legal exposure for the facility. By July, another complaint investigation uncovered a personal‑rights violation: a trash bag had been tied around a resident’s closet, preventing access to clothing and thereby impairing a resident’s dignity and daily functioning. This was cited under the personal‑rights provisions of the regulations and prompted a corrective‑action plan mandating staff training on personal rights within a week.

Taken together, Aldersly’s trajectory shows an initially strong compliance posture that was later challenged by lapses in incident reporting and resident‑rights safeguards. The facility’s capacity expansion proceeded smoothly, but the subsequent deficiencies underscore the need for more robust incident‑tracking systems and ongoing staff education on personal rights. Continued monitoring will be essential to ensure that the facility not only meets regulatory requirements but also delivers a consistently safe and respectful environment for its residents.
