Facility Evaluation Report

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Cuadra arrived unannounced to the facility to conduct a case management visit to cite deficiencies discovered during a complaint investigation and met with Maggie Garcia, Licensee.

LPA learned through observations, records review and interviews conducted on 3/19/26. LPA/Licensee observed the medication cabinet containing all resident’s medications located in the kitchen was unlocked and accessible to residents in care. Based on interviews conducted with staff (S1, S2 & S3) and residents (R1, R2 & R3), it was revealed that there are times when medication cabinet is kept unlock and accessible to residents, because some residents are “well trusted” to be able to get their own medications. Based on records review, residents’ (R1, R2 & R3) physician reports indicate that residents are not able to manage or store their own medications. The facility failed to keep residents’ medications locked at all times inaccessible to residents in care as stated by regulation.

Deficiencies cited from the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6 of California Regulation. Appeal rights given. Failure to correct the deficiency and/or repeat deficiencies within a 12-month period may result in civil penalties.
