Facility Evaluation Report

Licensing Program Analysts (LPA's) Nicol Wesley and Glenn Trueman conducted a case management visit at the facility and met with Mona Castro and Flor Castro. The purpose for todays visit is to verify if the Licensee's are complying with the L.A. Fire departments inspection report.

On 03/26/25 Evette Almaraz conducted a visit at the facility, the fire inspector rescinded the non-ambulatory fire clearance and only approved the facility to have six ambulatory residents. Therefore, since the facility currently has a non-ambulatory resident the facility is operating beyond the limitations of the fire clearance. On 03/27/25 the fire inspector sent the report to Community Care Licensing Division and the Dream Care Home, LLC.

We asked Mona Castro and Flor Castro if they have given a 30 day notice to resident #1. They answered no, but they were in contact with the daughter for resident #1. They did not provide proof that a 30 day notice was given to resident #1, or that they have been contacting facilities for the resident to move into.

The following deficiency was cited in accordance to title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8.

Appeal rights given. Exit interview conducted. The Licensee's refused to sign.
