Inspection Report Summary for Brookdale Auburn
Brookdale Auburn (facility number 317005468) was the focus of several unannounced Community Care Licensing visits between May 2021 and August 2022. The visits alternated between case‑management reviews of specific incidents and required annual inspections of infection‑control practices.
In May 2021 an incident involving a resident’s fall and subsequent fracture prompted a case‑management visit. The facility’s staff immediately called 911, notified the resident’s family and physician, and reported the event to CCL; no deficiencies were cited. A month later, a June 2022 incident report detailed a staff member’s accidental but forceful grasp of a resident’s arm. The agency confirmed that the staff member had admitted the action, the agency had terminated his employment, and the incident was reported to the sheriff’s office, the Ombudsman, and the resident’s POA. The follow‑up visit found the response adequate and cited no deficiencies.
The most significant issue emerged during an August 2022 complaint investigation. Investigators uncovered staff behavior that constituted inappropriate physical contact and a lack of glove use during incontinence care. Although the incidents themselves were not reported by staff, the facility failed to meet the reporting requirement for such events, leading to a written deficiency and a plan of correction due 15 September 2022.
Across all annual inspections, Brookdale Auburn consistently demonstrated substantial compliance with infection‑control protocols, maintaining adequate supplies of PPE, testing, and sanitation practices. No health‑or‑safety deficiencies were noted in these visits, underscoring a solid infection‑control program.
In summary, Brookdale Auburn’s licensing record reflects a facility that promptly addresses resident safety incidents, terminates non‑compliant staff, and meets most regulatory expectations. The remaining concern—failure to report certain inappropriate staff actions—highlights the need for reinforced training and monitoring of incident‑reporting procedures to ensure full compliance with licensing standards.
