Facility Evaluation Report

On 7/19/2024 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Bernadette Allen arrived at the facility to conduct the annual inspection. LPA introduced herself and was allowed entry into the home by support staff Danica Reyes.

LPA asked Danica the census and she confirmed four (4). While having a conversation with Caroline Armstrong the administrator LPA observed Adam Barone walking into the main door entrance area. Adam turn around fast going back into room number four (4) located by the front entrance. Caroline was asked why is Adam at the facility, and she said Adam is currently a client. LPA informed Caroline that he was not allowed to be at any facility licensed by California Department of Social Services. LPA asked Adam was he a client and he never responded to LPA’s question, he mumbled something under his breath and left the facility. Caroline was informed again that Adam Barone cannot be allowed to work and/or live in any CCL Licensed facility and should not have contact with residents in any facility licensed by the California Department of Social Services.

Caroline was informed that on 6/3/2024 Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Javier Prieto conducted an unannounced case management visit to the facility and met with her and at that time she was issued an immediate exclusion letter and had agreed that Mr. Adam Barone cannot be allowed to work and/or live in a CCL Licensed facility and not having contact with residents in any facility licensed by the California Department of Social Services.

A deficiency was cited during this visit for not ensuring the health and safety of the residents in care by allowing an excluded individual into the facility licensed California Department of Social Services.

An exit interviewed was conduct when this report and immediate Exclusion letter was discussed and provided to the Administrator Caroline Armstrong.
