The Rulebook

The rules that apply to this facility.

State requirements with the exact regulation citation, plain-language explanation, and a question to ask on tour. Rules this facility has been cited for appear first.

What dementia-care training must staff complete?22 CCR §87705 / HSC §1569.625
+
Plain language

Because a facility markets dementia or Alzheimer's care, state law mandates higher training standards: 12 hours of initial dementia training (6 hours before a staff member works independently with residents, 6 more within the first 4 weeks), 8 hours of annual dementia in-service every year thereafter, and an administrator must include 8 hours of dementia-specific continuing education in every 2-year recertification cycle. Training must cover individualized care plans, behavioral expressions, appropriate supervision, and the facility's dementia care philosophy.

Ask on tour

Can you show me each direct-care staffer's most recent dementia training certificate, and tell me when their next refresher is due?

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jill Nakagawa arrived unannounced to conduct a case management visit and gather information/records regarding incidents on 4/19/2026 self reported by the facility on 4/20/2026 that involved staff S1, S2, S3 and residents R1 and R2. LPA met with Executive Director Blaine Lyons, took statement and requested records for Community Care Licensing to review incident. LPA reviewed video surveillance footage of the common area in the Memory Care Unit from 04/19/2026 and observed staff S1, S2 and S3 caring for residents including R1 and R2. The video shows that during the shift S1 employed the use of a bench to prevent R1 from moving off of couch and S2 and S3 moving R2 to a wheelchair and using a seatbelt to secure R2 to chair. While these restraints were used residents were continually being cared for and supervised by staff. It was observed that the restraints were removed at the arrival of the AM shift by staff S4. LPA inspected the Memory Care Unit of the facility and found it to be clean and a comfortable temperature, with protocols in place for safe Dementia Care, including no access to hazardous materials, toxins or sharps and no use of unauthorized restraints. LPA and Executive Director discussed ongoing training with staff. Deficiencies cited from the California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6 of California Regulation and the Health and Safety Code. Appeal rights given.

Based on interviews and record review,LPA observed Call Light logs from January 20, 20253 through February 19, 2025 in which residents would push the call buttons and the response times were exceeding over 60+ minutes. This is a potential health, safety and personal rights risk to the residents in care.

Read raw inspector notes

Continued from 9099.... 6 taking 15 to 44 minutes and three calls taking from 1.56 hours to 3 + hours therefore the allegation is substantiated. (See 809D for the deficiency cited). The complaint alleges Staff do not follow the resident’s care plan. The complainant states some residents’ care plans state they need 2-person assistance due to needing a Hoyer lift, or for incontinence care, and staff have been told to do it on their own. The complainant stated resident R2 is a fall risk, and management said they need to be watched one on one. The complainant stated that it wasn’t communicated to all staff, and R2 fell out of bed 2/13/25. LPA spoke with staff S1 who reported that R2 had enhanced care services 1:1 between 1/22/2025 until 5/13/2025, which were clearly listed in the care plan which is completed by care staff members. The care records for R2 show they had enhanced care services and were receiving additional supports including escorts to and from activities and meals, mealtime support, hourly checks. According to S1, on 2/13/2025 R2 didn't fall but slid out of bed; there were no injuries (the facility utilizes Safely You camera). LPA conducted interviews and found that 6 out of 6 staff stated the company policy for care staff who are providing care independently must ask for assistance from another staff member when providing care for a Hoyer lift or a 2-person assist. Zero of 6 staff stated that they were instructed to initiate care alone for a two person assist. However, 2 of 6 staff members interviewed stated that if they did not receive a timely response to their request for assistance the staff member would aid the resident alone, despite the company policy. Therefore, the allegation that staff do not follow the care plan is substantiated. (See 809D for the deficiency cited). Deficiencies are cited from the California Code of Regulations (CCRs), and/or the Health and Safety Code. Failure to correct the cited deficiency(ies), on or before the Plan of Correction (POC) due date, may result in a civil penalty assessment. Continued on 9099-A 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 Continued from 9099-A Medication list does show barrier cream to be applied once per day but makes no reference to any redness or other concerns. Therefore the allegation that Staff do not ensure that resident is repositioned is unsubstantiated. The complaint alleges Staff do not prevent residents from engaging in inappropriate behavior. The reporting party stated 2 residents (R3 and R4) were found in bed together. Based on interviews LPA found that staff did not anticipate the behavior of residents R3 and R4. During a group activity staff noticed R3 and R4 missing from an activity and when they went to check on them R3 and R4 were found together in bed; an activity within their personal rights. There was no incident report filed citing any abuse or misconduct, and responsible parties were notified. Although it may have been unanticipated residents were exercising their personal rights - not engaging in inappropriate behavior, therefore the allegation that Staff do not prevent residents from engaging in inappropriate behavior is unsubstantiated.

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Jill Nakagawa arrived on February 4, 2025 for an unannounced Case Management visit to follow up on substantiated complaint allegations: complaint number 21-AS-20230724142905. LPA met with Miriam Faris, Administrator and explained the purpose of the visit. On January 9, 2024, the Department concluded an investigation which alleged that Neglect/Lack of Care and Supervision resulting in severe injury and Facility in disrepair. The allegations were substantiated, and the licensee was cited for violating Health and Safety Code (H&S) §1569.269(a)(6) Enumerated rights; and California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 22 §87303(a) Maintenance and Operation. At the time of the complaint visit on January 9, 2024, an immediate civil penalty for Health and Safety Code §1569.269(a)(b) of $500 was issued. The licensee was informed that an additional civil penalty was being determined and might be assessed based on Health and Safety Code §1569.49. The Department has concluded an analysis and has determined that a civil penalty is warranted for serious bodily injury. The Welfare and Institutions Code §15610.67 defines serious bodily injury as "an injury involving extreme physical pain, substantial risk of death, or protracted loss or impairment of a function of a bodily member, organ, or of mental faculty, or requiring medical intervention, including but not limited to, hospitalization, surgery, or physical rehabilitation.” This is evidenced by the facilities lack of supervision on February 17, 2023, when a resident (R1) who was identified as a fall risk and required additional supervision, was able to exit the patio door, go outside unsupervised and fall. Continued on 809-C 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 Continued from 809.... Staff (S1) last observed R1 at approximately 1800 hours sitting in a wheelchair near the patio door. Staff (S2) reported that on February 17, 2023, at approximately 1800 hours, surveillance video showed R1 exit the patio door and go outside unsupervised. Staff (S3), who was covering for S4 who was on break, was observed on camera in the living room area close to the patio door and did not turn around or respond to the patio door alarms. While outside unattended on the unlit patio for approximately one and a half hours, R1 fell and sustained a fractured hip resulting in hospitalization and surgery. Today February 4, 2025, the Department is issuing a civil penalty per Health and Safety Code §1569.49 for a violation that the Department constitutes as serious bodily injury resulting in the hospitalization of a resident, in the amount of $10,000. However, since an immediate civil penalty of $500 was previously issued on January 9, 2024, the amount of the civil penalty issued today will be $9,500. Exit interview conducted. A copy of the report has been issued. Appeal rights provided. Facility representative and signature on this report acknowledges receipt of the appeal rights, found on page two of LIC 421D.

(Continued from 9099) There is no indication the door chime was not working. Multiple staff stated the patio door alarm was operational and loud on the day of the incident. At approximately 1900 hours R1’s fall pad alarm went off and an alert was immediately sent to the cell phones for employees working that shift: S2, Staff (S3), Staff (S4), Staff (S5) and Staff (S6). S1 stated S3 was responsible for monitoring the living room area and responding to R1’s fall pad alarm.

S6 stated R1 was cold to the touch indicating R1 had been outside for an extended period of time. R1 was a known fall risk and required additional supervision. R1 was not permitted to be in the patio area alone due to being a fall risk. R1 was transported to the hospital by ambulance and diagnosed with a hip fracture requiring surgery and hospitalization. Based on the Department’s observations, interviews conducted and records reviewed the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the allegation that neglect by the facility resulted in resident’s injury is substantiated. California Code of Regulations, Health and Safety Code (1569.269 (a) (6), are being cited on the attached LIC 9099D. (Continued on 9099-C) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 (Continued from 9099-C) An immediate civil penalty is being assessed today in the amount of $500 for a violation that resulted in the sickness or injury of a resident in care. The licensee was informed that an additional civil penalty might be assessed based on Health and Safety Code 1569.49(e) or (f), or 1548(e) or (f), 1568.0822(e) or (f). Additionally, it is alleged that the facility’s lighting in the patio area where R1 fell was not working properly. Facility records indicate that staff were aware of the lighting not being fully functional as maintenance requests were made for repairs on “End of Shift Reports” dated 9/13/2022, 1/30/2023 and 2/19/2023. Based on the Department’s observations, interviews conducted, and records reviewed found the facility’s poor lighting in the patio area contributed to R1’s fall and injury and therefore the allegation that the facility was in disrepair is substantiated. California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, Article 5 Physical Environments and Accommodations). Appeal rights given.
