Inspection Report Summary for Garnsey Garden
The 2024 COMP II interview confirmed that administrator Cecilia Lazaga and her partner had read and understood the licensing laws governing a 740‑type residential care facility. With no residents on census at the time, the review focused solely on administrative compliance and documentation.
A pre‑licensing inspection in February 2024 revealed a generally clean, safe environment but identified two deficiencies. All resident bathrooms lacked non‑skid mats, and the facility’s emergency disaster plan did not address dementia or bedridden care. The evaluator noted that the pool was securely gated, fire safety equipment was present and operational, and required signage and postings were in place. Corrective action was requested, and a plan of correction was to be submitted before the application could proceed.
The required annual inspection conducted a year later, in February 2025, uncovered more significant safety and medication‑management concerns. Hot water temperature in the master bathroom measured 133.9 °F, exceeding the maximum safe limit and posing a burn risk. Medications were stored in an unlocked office, and one resident’s medication log was incomplete, indicating potential lapses in prescribed drug administration. The evaluator also noted that medication refill bags were left in the office, again exposing residents to unauthorized access. These deficiencies are linked to CCR 87465(a)(4), CCR 87303(e)(2), and CCR 87465(h)(2), with a plan of correction due 14 Feb 2025. Failure to comply could result in civil penalties.
Across the three visits, a pattern emerges: while basic health‑and‑safety infrastructure such as fire alarms, smoke detectors, and locked storage for hazardous materials is maintained, the facility struggles with consistent implementation of medication protocols, environmental safeguards for vulnerable residents, and disaster preparedness. Corrective action plans have been issued for each deficiency, and the licensing agency will monitor the facility’s compliance before renewing or granting the license.
This is the number of people who can stay here (Facility Capacity).

Frequently Asked Questions
Several government programs offer financial assistance for senior housing in various countries, focusing on the United States for a broad overview:
- Medicaid: Medicaid is a state and federally funded program that can cover the costs of nursing home care for those who meet eligibility criteria, including income and asset limits. Some states also offer Medicaid waivers that help pay for home and community-based services to prevent or delay nursing home placement.
- Medicare: Medicare, primarily a health insurance program for people aged 65 and over, does not cover long-term housing costs. However, it can cover short-term stays in a skilled nursing facility under specific conditions following a hospital stay.
- Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program: This program provides housing for low-income seniors. It offers rental assistance and access to supportive services, such as cleaning, cooking, and transportation.
- Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Properties: While not a direct subsidy, LIHTC encourages developers to create affordable housing. Seniors with low incomes can find reduced-rent apartments through this program.
- State and Local Programs: Many states, counties, and cities offer their own programs to assist seniors with housing costs. These can include property tax relief programs, rental assistance programs, and programs that offer affordable senior housing options.
- Veterans Affairs (VA): The VA offers several programs for veterans, including the Aid and Attendance benefit, which provides monthly payments to veterans who require the aid of another person, or are housebound, to help cover the cost of care in homes, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.
- Social Security: While Social Security primarily provides retirement income, for many seniors, these benefits are a crucial part of their budget, including housing costs.
