Inspection Report Summary for Brighter Living Senior Care

Bright Living, a 6‑bed non‑ambulatory residential care facility located at 3932 Fellton Way, has repeatedly met the California Department of Social Services’ licensing standards over the past year. In February 2023 the facility’s administrator, Paula Turpo, successfully completed the required COMP II competency interview, confirming understanding of licensing laws and operational procedures. A pre‑licensing inspection in March confirmed that all living, dining, and kitchen areas were properly furnished, that storage of hazardous items was secured, and that the facility’s food supply, sanitation, and emergency equipment met the Department’s requirements. The visit also noted that the building was compliant with fire safety and perimeter security standards.

In September 2023, an unannounced post‑licensing visit uncovered a single deficiency: the hot‑water temperature in the resident restroom had been measured at 121.4 °F, exceeding the 105–120 °F range mandated by the Health and Safety Code. The administrator immediately lowered the thermostat and committed to maintaining a one‑week temperature log, which was required to be submitted by mid‑September. All other areas—medication logs, resident files, staffing, and the facility’s kitchen—remained in compliance. This isolated incident illustrates the Department’s focus on continuous monitoring and swift correction of potential safety risks.

A required one‑year inspection conducted in April 2024 confirmed the facility’s ongoing compliance. With five residents on hand, the inspection noted adequate sanitation, proper furnishings, grab bars, and non‑slip flooring in all bathrooms, as well as an adequate linen supply and a functioning first‑aid kit. The water temperature was measured at 105.1 °F, and the thermostat was within the required range. The kitchen continued to hold a two‑day perishable and a seven‑day non‑perishable food supply, and all knives, medications, and cleaning supplies remained securely locked. Overall, Bright Living has consistently demonstrated adherence to California’s regulatory requirements, with a single, promptly resolved deficiency during the post‑licensing review.
