Inspection Report Summary for The Sequoias San Francisco

The Sequoias San Francisco facility has consistently been the subject of unannounced licensing visits that show a high level of routine compliance. Early inspections in 2021 and 2022 focused on COVID‑19 infection‑control protocols, confirming that signage, screening, isolation carts, PPE inventory, and environmental cleaning met the state’s requirements. In each of those visits the inspectors noted that the facility’s documentation—including staff training, medication storage, and emergency preparedness—was adequate, and no deficiencies were cited.

A significant exception emerged during the 17 May 2023 inspection when the Licensing Program Analyst discovered that the facility had multiple confirmed COVID‑19 cases but did not report the outbreak to the California Department of Social Services within the required 24‑hour window. The resulting report documented a regulatory deficiency under Title 22, § 87211, and prompted a formal plan of correction. Subsequent visits in May and August 2023 found no additional deficiencies, suggesting the facility had addressed the reporting lapse.

Overall, the facility’s physical plant, resident care, and staffing records remain in good order. All visited rooms meet required furnishings and lighting, hot water supply is maintained, and fire safety equipment is current. The facility has maintained comprehensive records of criminal background checks, health screenings, and ongoing staff training. The only pattern of concern is the isolated reporting failure regarding the COVID outbreak, which indicates a need for stronger communication procedures for epidemic events.

In short, Sequoias San Francisco demonstrates a strong compliance culture with robust infection‑control practices and well‑maintained care standards. The single documented lapse in outbreak reporting underscores the importance of timely notification to meet regulatory mandates, a gap the facility has been directed to correct in subsequent reviews.
