Inspection Report Summary for River Bluffs Memory Care

The California Department of Social Services conducted a series of unannounced evaluations of the facility numbered 107209048, known variably as COMPASS POINTE MEMORY CARE FACILITY and later as RIVER BLUFFS MEMORY CARE COMMUNITY FACILITY. The first two visits, in April and May 2021, were Health and Safety and Infection Control inspections, respectively. Administrator Donna Hurley met with Licensing Program Analysts Katie Brown and L. Xiong. The inspectors noted that the facility maintained a central entry point with hand‑sanitizer, a symptom‑screening protocol, and an approved COVID‑19 mitigation plan that had been in place since March 2021. All staff and residents were fully vaccinated, and no deficiencies were cited, indicating strong compliance with infection‑control standards during the early pandemic period.

Subsequent Health and Safety reviews in September 2021 and April 2022 continued to find no violations. The September visit focused on case management for a resident who had received a SOC 341, and the April visit involved a complaint‑investigation report delivery (Control Number 24‑AS‑20211040612101). The April inspections also reaffirmed that daily symptom screening, PPE usage, and visitor policies were properly documented and followed. The consistent presence of Katie Brown on these visits underscores a sustained monitoring effort and the facility’s ongoing adherence to regulatory expectations during that span.

The first documented deficiency emerged in the Annual Inspection of June 2023, where LPAs Miriam Flores and Katie Brown cited non‑compliance with CCR 87309(a) regarding the storage of potentially hazardous items. A razor was found in a resident’s shower and a laundry spray in a bathroom, posing a safety risk. A Plan of Correction was issued with a due date of 6 14 2023, requiring staff in‑service on proper storage and documentation. No other violations were noted, and the facility maintained compliance with fire, health, and sanitation requirements. The pattern across the reports shows a generally compliant operation, punctuated by a single corrective action in mid‑2023, with the regulatory oversight centered on health, safety, and resident‑care standards.
