Inspection Report Summary for The Ivy at Golden Gate

The California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, conducted a series of evaluations at IVY AT GOLDEN GATE, a 740‑type assisted‑living facility in San Francisco. Early in 2023 the facility’s administrator, Katherine Raukhman, completed a COMP II orientation in which she confirmed understanding of licensing laws, staffing requirements, and admission policies. The same year, an unannounced pre‑licensing visit by Licensing Program Analyst Komal Charitra observed the facility’s infrastructure, hygiene, and record‑keeping, finding it clean, well‑maintained, and compliant with Title 22. The analyst recommended immediate licensure pending final approval.
