Inspection Report Summary for Sequoia Springs Senior Living
Most inspections found deficiencies related primarily to medication management, resident safety, and staff training, with several substantiated complaints about inadequate supervision, failure to update care plans, and visitor restrictions. The facility received multiple immediate civil penalties totaling at least $2,250 for repeated medication errors and safety risks, including unsecured toxic substances and insufficient staffing. Several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, particularly those alleging poor resident care and facility disrepair, though some issues with laundry and building maintenance were substantiated in 2024. The most recent report from September 30, 2025, cited deficiencies involving staff training and medication errors but did not note any fines or enforcement actions. While problems with medication administration and resident safety have recurred, the facility has taken steps such as staff retraining and procedural updates, though challenges remain evident.
