Inspection Report Summary for White Sands La Jolla – Luxury Senior Living
White Sands La Jolla has consistently met California Department of Social Services licensing standards across successive annual inspections. In each visit—from the first in August 2021 to the most recent in August 2025—no deficiencies were cited. The licensing program analysts repeatedly noted the facility’s clean, well‑maintained environment, adequate supplies of food, linens, and personal protective equipment, and functional safety equipment such as smoke alarms, carbon‑monoxide detectors, and fire extinguishers. Resident census figures hovered near but never exceeded the authorized capacity of 299, with staff maintaining current criminal‑record clearances throughout.
Infection control remained a central focus during the 2021 and 2022 visits, with reviewers confirming the facility’s COVID‑19 mitigation plan, universal entry screening, symptom checks, and hand‑hygiene signage. The 2024 inspection added a detailed assessment of interior and exterior conditions, confirming proper temperature control, locked hazardous areas, and comprehensive staffing documentation. Each visit concluded with an exit interview, copies of the report and appeal rights delivered to the administrator, and no cited violations.
A single case‑management visit in October 2024 addressed an in‑facility incident between two cognitively impaired residents. Interviews revealed no health or safety concerns; staff had instituted a 24‑hour caregiver shift to monitor the pair, and families expressed no objections. The incident was documented, but the review found no systemic deficiencies. Throughout the series of inspections, the facility demonstrated robust record keeping, proactive staff training, and effective crisis response protocols.
Overall, the pattern of consistent, unblemished inspections suggests that White Sands La Jolla maintains high standards of care, safety, and regulatory compliance, with staff and leadership proactively addressing resident needs and maintaining a secure, therapeutic environment.
