Facility Evaluation Report
On 07/20/26, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kimberly Viarella made an unannounced visit to this facility to conduct a case management visit regarding an SOC 341 faxed to Community Car Licensing (CCL). LPA identified herself upon arrival, stated the purpose of the visit, and asked to speak to the Designated Facility Administrator / Executive Director. LPA met with Michael Talani and a brief meeting followed.
ED notified this LPA that medications were missing from a resident's (R1's) apartment. R1 was independent and stored and administered their own medications. ED and the Health and Wellness Director (HWD) searched the apartment and cross-reported to CCL, local law enforcement and the Ombudsman. The apartment was in disarray and it was believed that the medications were lost and/or accidentally thrown out. ED and Wellness Director conducted a training regarding the requirements for independently storing medications with the residents. ED stated that the HWD will be making frequent checks on the storage of medications going forward and if there are any other discrepancies, the facility will be taking over the storage and administration of the medication.
According to California Code of Regulations, Title 22, no deficiencies were cited during today's visit, a copy of this report was provided and an exit interview was conducted.
