Inspection Report Summary for GlenBrook Health Center
The California Department of Social Services conducted a series of unannounced case‑management visits to Glenbrook Assisted Living (facility number 374601560) between March 2021 and April 2023. Each visit was prompted by an incident reported by the facility—ranging from a resident’s hospitalization and subsequent death to a resident’s unplanned absence and return. In every instance the licensing team—alternating between a program analyst and a program manager—toured the premises, interviewed staff, and reviewed resident records. No deficiencies or immediate health‑safety concerns were identified during any of the visits, and the team consistently documented that no violations of licensing standards were observed.
The visits also served to verify compliance with broader regulatory requirements. A 2023 inspection confirmed that Glenbrook’s infection‑control plan was up‑to‑date, that universal entry screening was in place, and that visitors and staff adhered to hand‑hygiene and mask protocols. Throughout the period, the facility maintained capacity at 95 residents and reported a census that fluctuated between 60 and 75. The repeated encounters with resident deaths (April 2021, May 2022) and the 2023 AWOL event prompted the licensing office to gather additional documentation, including physician reports and confidential name lists, but each follow‑up visit concluded without citing any corrective actions.
Overall, the pattern of reporting and inspection indicates a facility that is responsive to incidents and proactive in providing documentation to the Department. The absence of cited deficiencies suggests that the facility’s processes for resident safety, infection control, and recordkeeping remain within the bounds of regulatory expectations, even as it manages multiple resident‑level incidents over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Several government programs offer financial assistance for senior housing in various countries, focusing on the United States for a broad overview:

Some states also offer Medicaid waivers that help pay for home and community-based services to prevent or delay nursing home placement.
