Inspection Report Summary for Apple Ridge Assisted Living
Apple Ridge Assisted Living, LLC (facility number 342701251) has undergone a series of licensing and compliance evaluations that reflect both routine oversight and corrective action. The July 2023 and April 2024 visits were COMP II interviews confirming that the administrator understood licensing requirements, including admission policies, staffing, and emergency preparedness. Both visits affirmed that the facility operated as a 740‑type residential care home with a capacity of 94 and that census levels rose from 60 to 74 residents over that period.
A pre‑licensing inspection on May 30, 2024 revealed deficiencies: residents in the assistant‑living building lacked call pendants and heat‑detector sensors were not functioning. The facility was placed on a provisional status pending corrections. By June 11, 2024, all identified issues had been addressed, and the licensing analyst determined the facility was in full compliance, marking the pre‑licensing component as passed. The census continued to grow, reaching 81 residents by mid‑June.
Unannounced visits in August and September 2024 shifted focus to case management and ownership changes. On August 22, a licensing analyst delivered an Order to Immediate Exclusion, removing a staff member from all shifts and the facility following a violation unrelated to the location. The following day, LPAs reviewed a sketch submitted after a change in ownership, approving a temporary designation for room #41 while the administrator confirmed plans to move his office there. These visits underscore ongoing monitoring of staffing, facility changes, and compliance with safety standards.
Across all interactions, a consistent pattern emerges: Apple Ridge Assisted Living demonstrates responsiveness to regulatory requirements, promptly correcting identified shortcomings, and maintaining clear communication with the California Department of Social Services. While occasional non‑compliance incidents have arisen—most notably the call‑pendant and heat‑sensor issues, and a staff exclusion order—the facility’s trajectory toward full licensing approval illustrates a commitment to meeting state standards for resident care and safety.
