Inspection Report Summary for Elim Place

Elim Place (Facility No. 107209543) underwent a series of licensing activities in the spring of 2025. A preliminary COMP II phone call on March 14 confirmed that administrator Maria Ceballos and licensee Elsa Nguyen understood Title 22 requirements and agreed to submit the necessary documentation. This brief review served to reinforce the facility’s familiarity with licensing expectations before the more in‑depth inspections that followed.

On April 17 a full pre‑licensing visit and Component III inspection revealed several compliance gaps. The facility was found to have delayed egress doors, and its fire clearance documentation was incomplete for that condition. Bathroom hot‑water temperatures varied widely, falling below the required 105 °F to 120 °F range, and the on‑site first‑aid kit was missing several key items such as a first‑aid manual, sterile dressings, and a thermometer. The inspector noted that chemicals were properly locked, medical records were in order, and resident files included admission agreements and physician reports. These deficiencies were documented, and the facility received a written plan of correction with specified timelines.

A follow‑up inspection on May 19 confirmed that Elim Place had addressed all previously cited issues. Fire clearance for delayed egress was now granted for the full capacity of 44 residents, all bathroom hot‑water temperatures met the 105 °F–120 °F standard, and the first‑aid kit was complete. The licensing analyst concluded that the facility met all pre‑licensing requirements and recommended that the California Department of Social Services submit the final documentation for license issuance. The rapid remediation of safety and health deficiencies demonstrates the facility’s responsiveness and commitment to maintaining compliance with state regulations.
