Inspection Report Summary for Avocet Playa Vista
Avocet at Playa Vista, a 741‑type residential care facility for the elderly, underwent a series of regulatory reviews in 2024 and 2025. A change‑of‑ownership application was filed in April 2024, and a pre‑licensing evaluation conducted in June confirmed that the physical plant, furnishings, call‑signal system, fire safety equipment, and staffing documentation met Title 22 requirements. The facility’s capacity of 286 residents (approximately 215–227 census during the period) and the availability of independent, memory‑care, and assisted‑living apartments were documented, and no deficiencies were noted in the unannounced inspections. However, the licensing agency observed that the facility’s call‑signal log reports were not readily available during a subsequent case‑management visit, resulting in a technical violation under Division 6, Chapter 8, Article 13 for failure to provide records upon demand.
Throughout 2025, the agency conducted multiple unannounced visits to address resident‑related concerns. On February 7, an incident involving Resident #1 prompted a case‑management review; the agency gathered records and performed an exit interview but did not find new deficiencies. A follow‑up visit on February 21 tested the call‑signal system in the resident’s apartment and confirmed proper functioning with no cited issues. In contrast, a separate case‑management investigation on February 19 uncovered the facility’s inability to provide required logs and previous incident documentation, reinforcing the need for improved recordkeeping and reporting practices.
An unsubstantiated complaint received in December 2024 about cultural and religious meal planning was investigated in January 2025. Staff interviews and menu reviews revealed that the facility’s food service relied on kosher‑certified vendors but that no clear confirmation of kosher status was communicated to residents, causing uncertainty and discouraging meat consumption. The investigation concluded the allegation was unsubstantiated, yet it highlighted a communication gap in meal planning that could affect resident satisfaction and cultural competency. Overall, the reports portray a facility that largely complies with physical and safety standards but faces ongoing challenges in documentation, communication, and cultural responsiveness, warranting continued monitoring and corrective action to ensure full regulatory alignment.
