Inspection Report Summary for Lexington Assisted Living
Lexington Assisted Living Facility (facility number 565850111) has faced two substantiated compliance deficiencies and one unsubstantiated allegation during the first half of 2021. In a February 2021 visit, evaluator Joann Rosales discovered that the facility had not reported a scabies outbreak that involved five residents and eight staff members. Staff interviews revealed that treatment had been initiated but no documentation existed of notification to the Department of Public Health. The investigation concluded the allegation was substantiated, citing a failure to meet the reporting requirements under CCR 87211(a)(1)(D). The facility was given a plan of correction due March 1, 2021, with the expectation that incident reports and public health notifications would be completed.
A separate investigation in May 2021, conducted by evaluator Martha Guzman‑Chavez, addressed a complaint that the food served was nutritionally inadequate. After touring the kitchen, dining area, and speaking with four residents, the evaluator found sufficient variety, appropriate labeling, and resident satisfaction. No deficiencies were cited, and the allegation was deemed unsubstantiated. This outcome suggests that, at least in this instance, the facility’s food program met regulatory standards.
The third report, also from May 2021 and led by evaluator Brian Balisi, found that staff shut off the water supply on May 20 from 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. for repairs and failed to provide advance notice to residents. The investigation confirmed the allegation, citing deficiencies in maintaining a safe and healthful environment (CCR 87307(d)(2)) and protecting residents’ personal rights (CCR 87468(a)). The facility received a plan of correction due June 4, 2021, requiring staff to implement written guidelines for notifying residents about future disruptions.
Overall, Lexington Assisted Living’s compliance record during this period highlights recurrent lapses in communication and reporting—specifically regarding infectious disease notification and emergency preparedness—while showing satisfactory performance in resident nutrition. Addressing these reporting and communication gaps will be essential for the facility to achieve full regulatory compliance and avoid potential civil penalties.
