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?

Resident 1 (R1) is schedule to shower on Mondays and Thursdays. LPA also reviewed the Ivy Park at Huntington Beach Resident Care notes dated December 9, 2025, for R1. Per Resident Care notes, it states while trying to give R1 a shower, R1 became very violent and began hitting staff. During the interviews with residents, R1-R3 reported that staff are meeting their needs and/or stated that they have not developed a Urinary Tract Infection (UTI). During the interviews with staff, S1 reported that the facility has enough staff to meet the resident' needs. Per S2, sometimes R1 refuses to shower and stated that staff change the residents' diapers as needed. Regarding the allegation that facility is billing for services not rendered, the following was revealed: During the investigation LPA reviewed the Ivy Park at Huntington Beach Resident Assessment dated December 11, 2025, for R1. Per Resident Assessment, R1's Assessment Total is 178 points. LPA also reviewed the Fees for Additional Items and Services, Care Points and Levels of Care. Per Fees for Additional Items and Services, Care Points and Levels of Care, the fee for Level 2 (130-204 points) is $3,730.00 per month. LPA reviewed the Ivy Park at Huntington Beach billing statement dated January 19, 2026, February 18, 2026, and March 18, 2026, for R1. Per billing statement the Care Fees due for R1 is $3,730.00. During the interviews with staff, S1-S2 reported that the facility is only billing for services being provided. Based on the information gathered during the investigation and review of documents obtained, LPA is unable to ascertain if the allegations occurred as reported due to conflicting information. Although the allegations may have happened or are valid, there is not a preponderance of the evidence to prove or refute the alleged violations occurred; therefore, these allegations are deemed UNSUBSTANTIATED. For today’s visit, there were no citations issued per Title 22, Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations.

It was alleged that on April 24, 2026, R1 had an unwitnessed fall around 1:00AM and did not receive medical attention until 9:30AM when they arrived at an emergency room and were noted to have asymmetric pupils. LPA inspected the facility, conducted health and safety checks on residents including R1, and observed no health and safety issues. LPA interviewed R1 who raised no concerns with the care they are receiving at the facility. LPA interviewed AD who stated that R1 was sent to the hospital on April 24, 2026, due to a bruise on their right eye, returned to the facility the same day, and has been on more frequent checks since then. LPA reviewed R1’s Physician’s Report dated February 2, 2026, which indicates R1 has dementia, uses a walker, and is non-ambulatory. LPA reviewed R1’s Individualized Service Plan dated December 11, 2025, which indicates R1 is a fall risk. LPA interviewed HSD who stated that R1 is a fall risk based only on having dementia and using a walker, but R1 does not have a history of frequent falls. LPA reviewed R1’s Facility Care Notes which do not document any previous falls for R1. Per HSD, on April 24, 2026, during the overnight shift between 1:30AM and 2:00AM, R1 was noted to have redness under their eye, but the redness did not appear concerning, R1 did not complain of pain, and there was no evidence that R1 had had a fall so it is unknown what caused the redness. HSD stated that during the morning shift between 7:00AM and 7:30AM, R1 was observed with darker bruising under their right eye, did not complain of pain, paramedics were called, and although R1 did not complain of pain, the paramedics took R1 to the hospital because R1 was on blood thinners. Per HSD, R1 returned to the facility later that same day with no fractures and the only concern noted by the hospital was that one of R1’s pupils is larger than the other, but this has been the case since R1 was young due to an accident. LPA reviewed R1’s Hospital Medical Records dated April 24, 2026, which indicate R1 had no fractures or injuries other than a bruise on their right eye. LPA interviewed R1’s responsible party who confirmed R1 has had different sized pupils since before they moved into the facility and reported no concerns with how the facility handled R1’s eye injury. Based on the information gathered during the investigation and review of all documents obtained, the Department is unable to ascertain if the above allegation occurred as reported. Although the allegation may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove or refute the alleged violation occurred; therefore, this allegation is deemed Unsubstantiated. An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report was discussed with and provided to facility representative.

Plain-language summary

A complaint alleged the facility did not return a deposit check and did not respond to a potential resident's inquiry. The investigation found the allegations were unfounded: the facility never deposited the check, returned it to the inquirer on March 27, 2025, and the person was never admitted or signed an admission agreement, so the facility had no obligation to respond as if they were a resident.

W1 stated that he contacted the facility to return the cashiers check since it was not made by P1's authorized representative and since he had no intention of moving P1 into the facility. W1 confirmed that the facility did not deposit the cashiers check and confirmed that the cashiers check was returned to him by the facility on March 27, 2025. W1 also confirmed that P1 was never admitted into the facility and that an admission agreement was never signed by either party. The Department conducted an interview with the ED for this allegation. The ED confirmed that the facility did receive a cashiers check for P1 as a deposit for her to move in the facility. The ED stated that once they were informed that the cashiers check was not made by P1's authorized representative, it was not deposited and it was returned to W1 on March 27, 2025. The ED confirmed that P1 was never admitted to the facility and that an admission agreement was never signed by either party. Regarding the allegation, Licensee not responding to responsible party, the following has been concluded: It was alleged that the Licensee did not respond to P1's responsible party. The Department conducted an interview with P1's responsible party, W1. W1 confirmed that P1 was never admitted into the facility and that an admission agreement was never signed by either party. The Department also conducted an interview with the ED. The ED also confirmed that P1 was never admitted into the facility and that an admission agreement was never signed by either party. Since P1 was never admitted into the facility and since an admission agreement was not signed by either party, P1 is not considered to have ever been a resident at the facility. Since P1 was never a resident at the facility, the Licensee is able to respond to general inquiries by the public at their own discretion. Based on the evidence gathered during this investigation, the complaint is UNFOUNDED, meaning that the allegations were false, could not have happened and/or is without reasonable basis. An exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Bryan Reamer-Yu and a copy of the report was provided.
