Inspection Report Summary for Brookdale Gardens of Tarzana

Brookdale Gardens of Tarzana has consistently demonstrated adherence to California’s community care regulations across multiple annual inspections. The 2021 and 2022 visits focused on the facility’s physical plant, health‑safety practices, and COVID‑19 protocols. Inspectors noted well‑maintained common areas, functional fire and life‑safety equipment, and proper sanitation of kitchen and dining spaces. Signage and hand‑washing stations were adequate, and residents were observed wearing masks and maintaining recommended distancing. No deficiencies were recorded during these inspections.

In 2023, the facility underwent both a required annual inspection and subsequent case‑management visits. The first visit, conducted alongside a complaint review, found the building and services in full compliance; temperature checks, PPE supplies, and medication storage met regulatory standards, and resident rooms were furnished with appropriate amenities. The follow‑up case‑management visit addressed an incident involving staff member S1 pushing resident R1 during a wheelchair transfer. Video evidence and staff interviews revealed the event but no injuries were reported, and the facility promptly documented the occurrence and implemented a review of staff training and incident response protocols.

Across all visits, a consistent pattern emerges: Brookdale Gardens maintains a safe, clean environment and meets state regulatory requirements with no recurring safety or care deficiencies. The occasional incident involving staff conduct was promptly investigated, and corrective actions were documented. Overall, the facility’s inspection history reflects robust compliance, attentive staff training, and effective management of both routine operations and isolated events.
