Inspection Reports for Rhoda Goldman Plaza – San Francisco Assisted Living & Memory Care

An unannounced annual inspection was conducted to evaluate compliance with licensing requirements for Arlington Heights Assisted Living and Memory Care.

The facility was generally in compliance with documentation, staffing, physical plant, safety, and food service requirements. However, one Type A deficiency was cited related to a staff member working without a required criminal fingerprint clearance, resulting in a $1000 civil penalty.

A case management visit was conducted to evaluate residents in care, utilities, food supply, staff availability, and compliance with criminal background clearance requirements.

The facility was found to have working utilities, sufficient food supply, and adequate staff for care and supervision; however, one of two staff members did not have criminal background clearance, resulting in a citation and civil penalty.

An announced pre-licensing evaluation visit was conducted to assess the facility's readiness for initial licensing as a Residential Care for the Elderly facility with a total capacity of six residents.

The facility was a one-story house with adequate heating/cooling, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, laundry, living areas, and safety equipment. However, the pre-licensing evaluation was incomplete due to several deficiencies including lack of a separate 72-hour emergency food supply, missing exit plans, insufficient emergency supplies, and needed furnishings and repairs.
