Inspection History
Inspection Report Summary for The Magnolia of Millbrae
Magnolia of Millbrae (Facility Number 415600154) has repeatedly met California’s regulatory standards during a series of unannounced inspections conducted between October 2023 and March 2025. In each visit, the facility’s administrator, Lola Borrego, presented current certification, and the licensing program analyst noted that the resident population—primarily non‑ambulatory individuals aged 60 and older—was well within the licensed capacity of 180, with four hospice residents at each inspection. Physical plant audits confirmed that emergency drills, fire suppression systems, carbon‑monoxide detectors, and emergency pull cords were all functional and up to date, while the kitchen and dining areas were stocked with adequate food supplies and maintained in a clean, operational state.
Throughout the assessment cycle, Magnolia consistently demonstrated sound medication stewardship, with all pharmaceuticals and sharps stored in locked, climate‑controlled rooms inaccessible to residents. Staff training and record‑keeping were observed as current, and the facility’s safety protocols—including the use of grab bars, nonskid flooring, and individual apartment thermostats—were routinely inspected. Minor administrative requests surfaced, such as submission of updated liability insurance, revised emergency disaster plans, and confirmation of the administrator’s certification expiry, but no regulatory deficiencies were cited in any report.
The most recent inspection in March 2025 reiterated the facility’s substantial compliance status, noting resolved medication discrepancies from the April 2024 visit and affirming that all fire and life‑safety equipment carried recent inspection tags. Although the final case‑management visit dated March 11, 2025 is incomplete in the record, it appears to follow the same pattern of confirming continued compliance and prompting the submission of any outstanding documentation. Overall, Magnolia of Millbrae’s inspection history reflects a consistently safe, well‑managed environment that adheres to state licensing requirements and proactively addresses administrative updates.
