Inspection Report Summary for Atria Walnut Creek

Atria Walnut Creek, a 740‑type facility in Walnut Creek, received a series of unannounced and scheduled inspections between March 2021 and September 2022. Early visits focused on health‑and‑safety and infection‑control compliance, while later visits addressed specific incidents involving medication delivery errors and a resident’s fatal choking event. Across all visits, the licensing analysts documented full adherence to state regulations, no citations, and robust mitigation plans that continued to be updated and reviewed by facility leadership.

Infection control inspections in June 2021 and July 2022 highlighted the facility’s diligent response to the COVID‑19 pandemic. The administrators maintained a complete mitigation plan, performed daily symptom and temperature screening at a single entry point, and ensured that all staff, residents, and visitors wore masks during activities. Vaccination records confirmed universal coverage by April 2021, and the facility’s environmental controls—spaced seating, regular disinfection, functional fire suppression, and properly stored emergency supplies—were consistently verified. These visits reaffirmed that Atria Walnut Creek had achieved and sustained compliance with all required infection‑control standards, and no deficiencies were cited.

Incident investigations revealed gaps that prompted corrective action. In December 2021, two medication delivery mistakes involving newly hired medical technicians were reported. The administrators and the Resident Services Director identified a missing component of the onboarding process: asking new staff how they were coping before assigning independent duties. Both technicians received retraining, and one was placed under mentorship, illustrating the facility’s willingness to adapt procedures in response to staff development needs. A September 2022 case‑management visit uncovered a fatal choking incident that occurred on 23 August. The investigation showed delayed communication of the resident’s death to the facility and limited information sharing with the family, raising concerns about incident reporting and family notification protocols. While these incidents did not result in regulatory citations, they highlighted areas for improved communication, staff support, and incident‑reporting processes.
