Inspection Reports for Ivy Park at Pleasanton
5700 Pleasant Hill Road, Pleasanton, CA 94588, Pleasanton, CA, 94588
Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
Most inspections found no deficiencies, including the annual inspection on September 9, 2025, which was clean. However, several complaint investigations and follow-up visits between October 2024 and September 2025 identified ongoing issues with incomplete or missing resident records, particularly from 2024, which posed potential risks to resident health and safety. The facility was cited multiple times for failing to maintain complete documentation, and a civil penalty was imposed as of September 30, 2025, with ongoing fines until the issue is resolved. Other complaints about staffing, supervision, and resident rights were investigated and found to be unsubstantiated. The record shows a pattern of documentation problems without other serious enforcement actions, and the most recent inspection did not resolve these deficiencies.
