Facility Evaluation Report

On 01/28/26, Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) Kimberly Viarella and Christina Valerio made an unannounced visit to this facility to conduct a case management and to deliver an amended report. LPAs identified themselves upon arrival, stated the purpose of the visit, and asked to meet with the Designated Facility Administrator. The Administrator was not present upon arrival, but staff contacted them and Susie Dizon arrived shortly after.

During an annual inspection on 03/07/24, LPA compared Guardian roster of background cleared staff to a handwritten roster supplied by the Designee. 1 out of 4 staff members were not background cleared in Guardian and the Designee could not provide documentation showing that the 1 individual had been cleared. LPA Viarella cited the deficiency. After final printing the report, LPA Viarella learned that the individual was background cleared. This LPA contacted the facility to inform them that the civil penalty would not be assessed and that the report amended.

According to the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, no other deficiencies were observed during today's visit, a copy of this report was provided along with the amended report from the visit on 03/07/24. LPA Viarella also requested the original report in return.

An exit interview was conducted with Susie Dizon.
