Inspection Report Summary for Merrill Gardens at Campbell
Merrill Gardens at Campbell (facility number 435202572) has undergone five unannounced inspections and case‑management visits between October 2021 and October 2024. The 2021 and 2022 annual visits, conducted by LPA Ryker Heberle, focused on environmental and COVID‑related compliance. Heberle noted incomplete ceiling repairs after a recent flood and missing COVID‑postings in some common areas in 2021; the following year the ceiling was fixed and all bathrooms were fully stocked with signage, trash cans, and paper towels. In both visits the facility maintained adequate temperature, water levels, fire equipment, and a 100 % staff vaccination rate, and no deficiencies were cited.
In June 2023, a case‑management visit addressed a resident elopement from the memory‑care Garden House. Staff explained that the resident was redirected before leaving the facility, and the facility responded by increasing staffing, eliminating outside contractors for that unit, changing lock combinations, and hiring a full‑time memory‑care manager. The LPA reported no new elopements and cited no deficiencies. A second incident review in May 2024 investigated a staff member’s alleged impact on a resident’s head; after record checks and a wellness observation, the LPA found no deficiencies.
The most recent annual inspection in October 2024, conducted by LPA Marcella Tarin, confirmed that the building, kitchen, dining areas, and medication storage complied with regulatory standards. However, Tarin identified documentation gaps: residents R2 and R3 lacked updated physician reports, and staff members S2, S6, and S7 had incomplete CPR/first‑aid training records. These deficiencies were cited under California Code of Regulations, Title 22. The facility’s emergency drills, fire equipment servicing, and disaster plans were all current.
Overall, the reports show a pattern of timely remediation of physical and procedural issues in the early years, followed by focused corrective actions after resident safety incidents. While the facility has maintained strong environmental and infection‑control standards, recent documentation lapses highlight a need for ongoing attention to record‑keeping and staff training to sustain full compliance.
