Inspection Reports for Ivy Park at Santa Monica
1312 15th Street, Santa Monica, CA 90404, Santa Monica, CA, 90404
Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
Most inspections found no deficiencies, and several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, indicating generally good compliance with regulations. The most recent report from September 17, 2025, was an annual inspection with no deficiencies observed. Earlier in 2025, two complaint investigations substantiated issues with malfunctioning fire alarms that posed a potential safety risk, resulting in citations, but these concerns were not present in the latest inspection. Other substantiated findings include a late COVID-19 outbreak report in late 2023 and an isolated issue in 2021 where a memory care resident was not adequately protected from ingesting harmful objects. Overall, the facility appears to have addressed past deficiencies, with recent reports showing improvement and no new serious issues.
