Inspection Report Summary for Ivy Park at Cathedral Hill

The 2024 facility evaluation for number 385600429, now operating as **Ivy Park at Cathedral Hill**, was a routine one‑year inspection conducted by Licensing Program Analyst John Calandra. The review found the building’s physical plant, fire safety equipment, temperature controls, and food storage compliant with state regulations. All resident bedrooms were adequately lit and furnished, and all hazardous materials were securely locked out of residents’ reach. A single technical violation was noted: one prescribed “as‑needed” medication recorded in the centrally stored medication record could not be located. No other deficiencies were cited, and the executive director, Faimafili Igafo, received the completed report on the same day. The inspection confirmed that the facility met current safety, health, and administrative requirements.

In contrast, the 2022 case‑management visits—conducted under the same facility number but then called **Coventry Place**—identified multiple significant compliance gaps. In April, unannounced inspection revealed that during a hot‑water pump repair residents were denied alternate hot‑shower arrangements, violating California Code of Regulations, Title 22. The subsequent August visit highlighted failures in updating resident responsible‑party records, which led to mis‑communication with families and potential safety risks. An additional August health‑and‑welfare check uncovered inadequate COVID‑19 reporting: positive residents were allowed to mingle with non‑infected peers without masks, and the facility failed to submit timely notifications to the California Department of Social Services.

Across these visits, a pattern emerged: earlier reports consistently documented deficiencies in resident‑care communication, record maintenance, and emergency procedures, each accompanied by a plan of correction with specified due dates. The 2024 inspection, however, indicated a substantial improvement in compliance, with only a minor technical lapse remaining. The facility’s change of name—from Coventry Place to Ivy Park at Cathedral Hill—did not affect the underlying licensing framework, and the recent audit suggests that corrective actions taken after the 2022 findings have largely been successful, leaving the agency with a single minor observation to monitor.
