Inspection Report Summary for Common Destiny Care Home

Common Destiny, a small 740‑type group home in Fremont, underwent three unannounced annual inspections over the past two years. The 05/16/2022 visit uncovered several immediate safety and regulatory violations. Staff had left cleaning supplies, knives, gardening tools, and the medication room unlocked—pushing the facility into multiple CCR 87309(a) and 87465(h)(2) deficiencies. In addition, bed rails remained in place for residents not under hospice care, violating CCR 87608(a)(5)(B). A locked side gate, vertical blinds in disrepair, and an RV with staff sleeping inside the backyard also presented health and safety concerns. The licensing evaluator documented each shortfall and required a plan of correction with a one‑day turnaround; all deficiencies were subsequently resolved and cleared before the due date, preventing potential civil penalties.

The January 27, 2023 inspection found no deficiencies. The evaluator noted that the facility maintained adequate hand‑washing stations, PPE supplies, a robust food stock, and a functional infection‑control and disaster plan. Daily disinfection of common areas, functional safety equipment, and properly locked sharps and toxins were all compliant. The visit confirmed that the home had met all California Code of Regulations requirements for that year, and no corrective actions were required.

The most recent January 25, 2024 visit, while not fully documented in the provided text, was a standard unannounced annual review. The evaluator met with Administrator Marvin Tom and noted the completion of the visit, implying that the facility remained in compliance with licensing standards at that time. Together, these inspections illustrate a facility that has struggled initially with basic safety and storage protocols but has made rapid corrective changes. The pattern of early deficiencies followed by prompt resolution suggests a learning curve, while the subsequent clean reports indicate that Common Destiny has established more reliable compliance practices. Overall, the facility appears to have stabilized its operations, meeting required regulations and maintaining a safe environment for its residents.
