Inspection Report Summary for Golden Age Care

Golden Age Inc., a 740‑type residential facility in Millbrae, California, was subject to a series of licensing inspections between 2021 and 2024. The July 26, 2021 annual visit found the building physically safe—passages, fire protection, and medical storage were in good condition—but revealed two significant deficiencies. A padlocked gate on the backyard exit violated the requirement that all passageways remain unobstructed, and the facility had added a bedroom, bathroom, elevator, and hallway without obtaining the required building permits. The licensing evaluator issued a plan of correction that required the removal of the padlock, submission of updated administrative and personnel forms, proof of liability insurance, and a permit application by August 9, 2021.

A follow‑up visit on August 11, 2021 focused on case‑management and reporting issues that remained unresolved. While the facility had improved its COVID‑19 signage and staff masking practices, the evaluator identified that a staff member providing care had no current criminal‑record clearance, and that four residents who tested positive for COVID in January 2021 had not been reported to the Department or to the local health officer as required. The evaluator issued new deficiencies, including a criminal‑record clearance requirement and a reporting‑requirements violation, with a due date of August 18, 2021. The evaluator also noted ongoing debris in the backyard and incomplete signage, advising the facility to continue addressing these practical safety concerns.

The unannounced inspection on July 23, 2024 demonstrated substantial progress. The licensing analyst observed a clean kitchen with locked knives, medications safely stored, and an expanded food storage area in the garage. Fire safety equipment—including multiple extinguishers, smoke and carbon‑monoxide detectors, a full sprinkler system, and a functional alarm pull station—was in place and inspected. No new deficiencies were cited, suggesting that Golden Age Inc. had largely remedied the earlier concerns and achieved compliance with its physical plant and safety standards. The pattern of documentation and reporting lapses from 2021, however, underscores the need for continued vigilance in administrative processes even as the facility demonstrates improved on‑site safety practices.
