Inspection Report Summary for Garden Abode
Garden Abode, a small 740‑type facility in San Diego, has undergone annual, unannounced licensing inspections every year from 2021 through 2025. The site, limited to a maximum capacity of six residents, maintains a hospice waiver for up to four residents and consistently demonstrates clean, well‑maintained housing, adequate food supplies, and proper safety equipment such as fire extinguishers and carbon‑monoxide detectors.
In both the 2021 and 2022 inspections, the Licensing Program Analyst found no deficiencies. The facility met all infection‑control protocols—including universal entry screening, hand‑hygiene signage, and PPE supplies—along with the required furnishings and sanitary conditions for each resident room. The consistent lack of citations indicates a solid baseline of operational compliance during those years.
The 2024 inspection uncovered a Type B deficiency related to personnel recordkeeping. Four staff members lacked complete personnel files, a lapse that could affect the safety and rights of residents. A Plan of Correction was issued, requiring the administrator to submit full records by August 30, 2024. The report noted that other aspects of care—room safety, food storage, kitchen equipment, and locked knives—remained compliant, and no immediate health or safety hazards were identified.
In 2025 the inspection returned to a clean bill of health. The facility continued to provide the requisite furnishings, maintain clear pathways, and store perishable and non‑perishable food for at least two and seven days, respectively. Locked kitchen knives, proper hot‑water temperatures, and functional emergency equipment were observed, and no deficiencies were cited. This suggests that the corrective action taken after the 2024 lapse was effective and that the facility maintains its high standards of care and safety.
Overall, Garden Abode demonstrates a strong track record of compliance with licensing requirements, with only a single, addressable record‑keeping lapse in 2024 that was promptly corrected. The pattern of inspections reflects an organization that prioritizes resident safety and regulatory adherence, maintaining consistent quality across successive years.
