Inspection Report Summary for Alpine View Lodge

Alpine View Lodge, a 740‑type senior residential facility in Alpine, CA, has consistently met California’s Title 22 requirements across a series of inspections from 2022 to 2023. A telephone Component II interview in November 2022 confirmed that the administrator and owner understood all licensing responsibilities, while a pre‑licensing visit the following month documented a clean, well‑maintained environment with functioning safety systems and adequate food and medication supplies. No deficiencies were cited, and the facility was cleared to proceed with its license application.

In April 2023, an unannounced case‑management visit focused on the facility’s new secured perimeter and resident rights. The Licensing Program Analyst verified that the requested fence gate lock was consistent with fire clearance approvals, that evacuation routes were updated, and that staff had procedures to manage residents who might leave the premises. The review of medical records confirmed that 29 of 30 residents had dementia or a related neuro‑cognitive disorder, and that all resident files contained current diagnoses and consent statements. No safety or care deficiencies were identified.

The most recent unannounced one‑year inspection in December 2023 reaffirmed the facility’s ongoing compliance. Observers noted well‑equipped resident rooms, functional emergency equipment, secure medication storage, and adequate staffing levels. Residents were treated with dignity, and the facility maintained appropriate food supplies and cleaning protocols. Throughout the inspections, no deficiencies were cited, and the licensing analyst issued a copy of the report and appeal rights to the licensee.

Overall, Alpine View Lodge demonstrates a pattern of robust compliance with health, safety, and care standards. Its consistent, thorough documentation and proactive management of resident needs and facility security have resulted in clean reports across multiple inspection cycles.
