Inspection Report Summary for Sunol Creek Memory Care

SUNOL CREEK MEMORY CARE, a 740‑type facility in Pleasanton, was visited by the California Department of Social Services on five occasions between April 2022 and April 2023. The visits included a required annual inspection, two case‑management reviews, and two incident‑related assessments. Each unannounced visit was conducted by Licensing Program Analyst G. Luk, with administrators and managers such as Divine Ramirez, Jacqueline Scott, and Assistant Executive Director meeting with the evaluator.

Across the inspections, the facility consistently met infection‑control, medication‑administration, and emergency‑plan standards. The 2022 visit documented proper hand‑sanitizer stations, posted cough etiquette, and an up‑to‑date COVID‑19 mitigation plan. The 2023 annual review confirmed full fire clearance, functional smoke and CO detectors, a written disaster plan, and adequate food and water supplies. Staff training records—covering dementia care, emergency procedures, and hospice care—were complete, and medication charts reflected accurate, physician‑ordered dosing.

Despite these strengths, a couple of compliance gaps emerged. In March 2023 a deficiency was noted under CCR 87411(f): a staff member, S4, lacked a current health screening, a condition that could jeopardize resident safety. A plan of correction was issued with a 14‑day deadline to submit the screening. Earlier in January 2023, the flood event that forced the relocation of eight rooms prompted a request for a flood‑mitigation and repair plan; the evaluator noted that the plan was pending. In the April 7, 2023 incident review, two resident altercations (SOC341 reports) were investigated; while the evaluator recorded the events and staff response, no formal deficiencies were cited.

The pattern that emerges is one of a facility that largely adheres to regulatory requirements and maintains safe, well‑staffed environments, while also proactively addressing isolated lapses. The repeated absence of major deficiencies and the timely correction of identified issues suggest a responsive management team that prioritizes resident safety and regulatory compliance.
