Inspection Report Summary for Cogir of Brea
The California Department of Social Services evaluated COGIR of Brea, a new residential care facility for the elderly with a 110‑resident capacity. The first two visits, in May and June 2023, confirmed that the building, its furnishings, and its emergency systems—central HVAC, individual call systems, smoke and carbon‑monoxide detectors, evacuation chairs, and emergency plans—meet Title 22 requirements. The pre‑licensing inspection noted that the facility was ready for operation, with adequate food supplies, linen, and staff training records, and received approval to be licensed by the Central Applications Bureau.
In early 2024 the agency conducted unannounced case‑management visits. The first in May focused on a complaint regarding the absence of the required “See Something, Say Something” poster at the main entrance; the poster was relocated to a hallway location and the issue was resolved. The July annual inspection highlighted a single compliance deficiency: one staff member had not completed the mandated 20 hours of training—including dementia care—within the first four weeks of employment. A plan of correction was documented with a due date of early August. No other staff, resident, or facility deficiencies were noted.
Across all inspections the facility demonstrates strong compliance in care, safety, and operational standards. The recurring themes are minor administrative lapses—poster placement and training timelines—that have been promptly addressed. With these issues resolved and the facility’s physical and emergency infrastructure fully compliant, COGIR of Brea remains in good standing for licensure and ongoing operation.
