Inspection Report Summary for Brookdale Ocean House
Brookdale Ocean House, a 10‑story high‑rise located in Santa Monica, was the subject of two unannounced annual inspections in 2021 and 2023, both conducted with the new CARE Inspection Tools. The facility’s capacity is 150 residents, and the evaluations emphasized infection‑control protocols, safety equipment, and Title 22 compliance. The facility maintains an approved mitigation plan and reported that all staff—except one—were fully vaccinated, as were all residents, with weekly COVID‑19 testing in place. Adequate personal protective equipment, sanitizing stations, and temperature‑screening logs were observed throughout the premises.
In 2021 the licensing program analyst found the facility COVID‑free, with complete vaccination coverage, appropriate PPE supplies, and thorough sanitation practices. All safety systems—smoke and carbon‑monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, emergency alert pendants, and push‑button call systems—were functional, and no deficiencies were cited. The 2023 visit replicated these observations, confirming continued compliance across all regulated areas, including medication storage, emergency drills, and staff training on abuse reporting. Both inspections concluded without citations, underscoring a sustained adherence to regulatory standards and a strong safety culture.
A case‑management visit on 29 September 2023 followed a complaint investigation that began on 28 June 2023 and identified staff member Trevor Weiss as involved. The licensing program analyst met with the associate executive director and reviewed the complaint, but the available excerpt does not detail the findings or any resulting actions. The initiation of a case‑management review indicates active oversight and a willingness to address individual concerns, even though no deficiencies were noted at the time of the visit. Overall, the facility demonstrates consistent compliance with care and safety requirements while remaining responsive to complaints and ensuring continued regulatory compliance.
