Inspection Report Summary for The Gate of Beautiful
The Gate of Beautiful II, a six‑bed residential facility in Modesto, has experienced a marked improvement in compliance from its 2021 inspection to its 2023 visit. In May 2021 the Licensing Program Analyst found multiple safety and administrative deficiencies: the facility lacked a current fire clearance, had no fire‑drill log, and was missing required carbon‑monoxide detectors and oxygen‑use signs. Staff and resident records were incomplete, a resident lacked a tuberculosis test, and the facility had not paid its annual licensing fee, prompting a plan of correction. The report documented these violations and noted potential risks to resident health and safety.
A follow‑up inspection in April 2022 revealed that the facility had rectified these earlier problems. All requisite documentation—including the administrator certificate, personnel report, emergency disaster plan, and liability insurance—was current, and the fire extinguishers and carbon‑monoxide detectors were properly installed. The physical plant was clean and well‑maintained, and the kitchen held adequate food supplies. The assessor reported no deficiencies, indicating that Gate of Beautiful II had achieved compliance with the state’s regulatory requirements.
The May 2023 inspection, while largely reaffirming good condition, identified a few new safety concerns. Cleaning and cleaning‑tissue supplies were not locked and therefore potentially accessible to residents, which contravenes regulations on toxins. The assessor also noted that two of the three residents were absent during the visit, and that the staff file review was complete. No major administrative or licensing issues were found, suggesting that the facility remains largely compliant, though the safety of hazardous materials requires attention.
Overall, the narrative shows a trajectory from significant regulatory non‑compliance in 2021 to full compliance by 2022, with a modest lapse in safety protocols emerging in 2023. Gate of Beautiful II has demonstrated the capacity to correct deficiencies, maintain regulatory standards, and provide a safe environment, while the remaining issues emphasize the need for continued vigilance in securing and monitoring hazardous substances within the facility.
