Inspection Report Summary for Happy Journey Care Home

HAPPY Journey Care Home, LLC, a six‑bed community care facility in Fair Oaks, has been subject to annual, unannounced inspections under the California Department of Social Services’ Community Care Licensing Division over the past four years. Each inspection—conducted by licensed program analysts—focused on Title 22 compliance, infection‑control protocols, and environmental safety. The administrator, Quanying Su, was absent at the 2023 and 2024 visits, with a caregiver signing on her behalf; otherwise, the staff was present and cooperative.

The most significant finding emerged during the October 5, 2023 inspection, when a deficiency was cited under CCR 87309(a) for chemicals that were accessible to residents. The analyst noted that the facility had not locked cleaning solutions and similar items, posing a potential health and safety risk. A plan of correction required moving these substances to a locked area, which was promptly completed during the visit, and the deficiency was cleared by the inspector’s conclusion. All other areas—bedroom furnishings, sanitation, kitchen storage, medication security, smoke and carbon‑monoxide detectors, and emergency supplies—were in compliance. The 2021, 2022, and 2024 inspections reported no deficiencies, with the facility consistently meeting infection‑control standards and maintaining required food supplies and safety devices.

Across these evaluations, a clear pattern of robust compliance emerges. The home consistently upholds environmental and safety standards, and staff demonstrate adherence to COVID‑19 protocols and proper documentation. The isolated chemical‑storage lapse in 2023, addressed immediately, suggests that the facility responds promptly to identified risks. Overall, the reports indicate a well‑managed care setting that largely satisfies regulatory requirements, with only a single, swiftly corrected deficiency noted during the most recent audit.
