Inspection History
Inspection Report Summary for Brookdale Sylvan Ranch
Brookdale Citrus Heights, a 740‑type residential care facility in Citrus Heights, was subject to two unannounced complaint investigations conducted on April 19 2021 by Licensing Program Analyst Kevin Mknelly. The investigations addressed separate sets of allegations that together paint a picture of systemic deficiencies in resident care, oversight, and financial stewardship. Both investigations concluded that the allegations were substantiated, leading the California Department of Social Services (CCLD) to issue corrective action plans and the potential for civil penalties if deficiencies are not remediated.
The first investigation uncovered several serious violations. A contracted home‑aid employee stole a resident’s credit card and used it for approximately $2,400 in unauthorized charges, constituting theft and financial exploitation. Additionally, the facility failed to provide timely podiatry care to a resident who complained of toe pain and had documented circulation issues; the resident’s pain‑related needs were not addressed, posing an immediate health risk. The facility also overbilled residents for services from July through November 2020, with the administrator aware of the discrepancies yet no correction made. These findings violated the personal‑rights provisions for residents, the incidental medical and dental care regulations, and the admission‑agreement billing provisions.
The second investigation focused on medication, hygiene, documentation, staffing, and activity deficits. Incident reports and staff interviews revealed that residents received medication errors, such as an unrefilled prescription that forced a resident to seek emergency care, and repeated falls. Records were incomplete, and residents’ hygienic needs were not met, indicating neglect. The facility’s staffing levels were insufficient to meet resident acuity and to provide adequate activities. These shortcomings contravened the state’s regulations on medication management, resident records, and adequate staffing for care.
Together, the investigations highlight a pattern of neglect, financial abuse, and inadequate oversight that endangers residents’ health and safety. CCLD mandated the facility to submit comprehensive plans of correction by set deadlines, and failure to address these deficiencies may result in civil penalties. The findings underscore the necessity for Brookdale Citrus Heights to strengthen staff supervision, ensure timely medical services, maintain accurate financial billing, and uphold residents’ personal rights to prevent future violations.
