Most inspections found no deficiencies, with several complaint investigations determined to be unsubstantiated. The most recent report from September 15, 2025, was clean with only two minor technical violations related to procedural matters. However, a serious deficiency was cited on August 5, 2025, after a complaint investigation found neglect and lack of supervision that led to resident injuries and posed an immediate health and safety risk; this was corrected by the following day’s Plan of Correction visit. Other issues noted over time involved minor documentation and personnel record deficiencies, as well as isolated environmental concerns like uncovered trash cans and missing handwashing posters. The facility appears to have improved since the serious incident in August 2025, with recent inspections showing no deficiencies.
An unannounced annual inspection was conducted as a required one-year visit to evaluate compliance with licensing requirements.
Findings
No deficiencies were cited during the visit per California Code of Regulations Title 22. Two technical violations were issued related to procedural matters. The facility was found to have proper food storage, locked hazardous areas, functioning safety equipment, and adequate resident room and bathroom conditions, though water temperatures exceeded regulatory limits and the dining area was under remodeling without prior notification.
