Inspection Report Summary for Diamond Senior Living
Diamond Senior Living Inc., a six‑bedroom home in Long Beach, completed its initial licensing process in early 2022 under the direction of administrator Richard Del Rosa. The first facility evaluation in March 2022 verified that the administrator understood the California Code Title 22 regulations, the facility’s operational scope, admission policies, staffing requirements, and emergency preparedness. The subsequent pre‑licensing visit in April 2022 confirmed that the physical plant—complete with bedrooms, bathrooms, a kitchen, a locked medication room, and a staff area—met all applicable health and safety standards. No deficiencies were recorded, and the licensing program analyst indicated that the facility was substantially compliant and ready for a license to serve ambulatory and bedridden residents aged 60 and over.
The annual required inspection conducted on April 26, 2023, employed the new CARE Inspection Tool and reaffirmed that the facility’s infrastructure remained in good condition. Beds and linens were adequate, sanitation was satisfactory, and essential safety devices such as smoke detectors, a fire extinguisher, and a functional emergency communication system were in place. However, the inspector identified a single deficiency related to night‑time supervision: staff scheduled from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. had not been shown to be familiar with the facility’s emergency procedures or trained in first‑aid as mandated by Section 87465 of the California Health and Safety Code. A plan of correction was documented, and the licensee was notified of the requirement to rectify this gap.
The sequence of inspections reveals a pattern of overall compliance punctuated by a specific lapse in emergency preparedness training for night staff. While the facility consistently maintains its physical and operational standards, the 2023 finding underscores the importance of maintaining comprehensive staff training and emergency readiness, particularly for shifts that overlap with high‑risk periods. Prompt implementation of the plan of correction will be essential for sustaining the facility’s license and ensuring resident safety.
