Inspection Report Summary for Sapphire Pacific Residential Care III
The Community Care Licensing Division conducted four unannounced annual inspections of SAPPHIRE LAKE SAN MARCOS (Facility Number 374603699) between 2021 and 2024. In the 10 / 28 / 2021 visit, Administrator Victoria Matic welcomed LPA Liliana Silveira and the facility was found fully compliant with its COVID‑19 mitigation plan, infection‑control procedures, and basic safety requirements. No deficiencies were noted, and the facility received the standard licensing appeal rights documentation.
During the 10 / 24 / 2022 inspection, the same administrator and LPA Chinwe Nwogene again confirmed adequate hand‑hygiene supplies, temperature monitoring, and a designated infection‑control lead. However, a single Title 22, Division 6 deficiency was cited: a knife left on the kitchen counter, a risk for the facility’s dementia residents. The deficiency was documented under CCR 87705(f)(1) with a plan‑of‑correction deadline of 10 / 25 / 2022; the administrator promptly locked the knife, and the licensee agreed to submit a letter of understanding.
The 10 / 09 / 2023 visit by LPA Jacqueline Shaw Ross reviewed the facility’s physical layout, furnishings, safety signage, and medication management. All rooms met regulatory standards, staff possessed current certifications, and records were complete. No deficiencies were cited. The assessment confirmed that the facility continued to maintain a clean, functional environment and upheld its obligations for emergency plans and staff training.
The 10 / 09 / 2024 inspection, conducted by LPA Kathleen Banrasavong, began with a review of client records, incident reports, personnel files, and training records. The narrative was incomplete in the provided text, but no deficiencies were recorded up to that point. Across the four visits, SAPPHIRE LAKE SAN MARCOS consistently demonstrated compliance with infection‑control protocols, safety standards, and record‑keeping requirements, with the only documented lapse being the kitchen knife incident in 2022, which was promptly addressed.
