Inspection Report Summary for Ararat Gardens

Ararat Gardens (Facility #198603605) has undergone a series of licensing reviews over the past two years, each of which concluded that the facility complies with California’s Community Care Licensing regulations. The 2022 “COMP II” interview confirmed that the administrator and staff had a clear understanding of licensing requirements, including admission policies, staffing, emergency plans and complaint procedures. No deficiencies were cited, and the facility was deemed ready for pre‑licensing review.

During the 2023 pre‑licensing evaluation, the licensing analyst toured a four‑story residence that accommodates 175 beds, including assisted‑living and independent‑living wings, a skilled‑nursing unit, and extensive common‑area amenities. The review found all rooms properly furnished, fire‑clearance certificates in place, and safety features such as smoke/CO detectors, grab bars and functioning call systems fully operational. Records for staff and residents were maintained on site, and the facility’s medication storage, hygiene supplies, and food service operations met state standards. The analyst noted no items requiring correction and cleared the facility for licensing.

The most recent unannounced 2024 inspection, conducted as a required annual review, reiterated the facility’s ongoing compliance. No hazards were observed, the emergency evacuation routes remained clear, and the temperature controls for hot water and room comfort met regulatory thresholds. Fire‑safety equipment, including sprinklers and detectors, continued to be functional, and the facility maintained an acceptable stock of food and medical supplies. The analyst’s report recorded no health‑ and safety issues and issued an exit interview confirming continued adherence to licensing standards.

Across all visits, the pattern is one of consistent compliance and proactive maintenance. Ararat Gardens demonstrates robust operational practices—adequate staffing, clear emergency protocols, and meticulous upkeep of living spaces—while remaining well below capacity and free of the common deficiencies that frequently surface in similar settings. The facility’s record suggests a stable, well‑managed environment that upholds the safety and quality expectations set by the California Department of Social Services.
