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.

A resident fell nine times while in assisted living and three more times after moving to memory care, sustaining hip fractures in June and August 2024; the facility completed assessments, changed medications, added status checks, and recommended a personal caregiver and higher level of care in September 2024, but the resident had six additional falls after that recommendation, and this violation was substantiated with a $500 civil penalty. Complaints about insufficient staffing and inadequate staff training were not substantiated based on available evidence, though the facility's care staff ratio reached 1:7 or 1:8 on some days and all staff completed required training.
“Based on interviews and records review, Licensee failed to provide increased supervision to R1 and cause R1 to have multiple falls which poses an immediate Health, Safety, or Personal Rights risk to persons in care.”

(Cont. from LIC 9099) R1 was sent to the hospital several times due to the falls, and during the falls had sustained a left hip fracture 6/11/2024 and a right hip fracture 08/2024 while residing in assisted living. S2 said they completed multiple assessments and recommended additional supervision for R1. Staff reported that additional status checks were implemented and R1s medications were changed by physician to assist R1 with sleep and anxiety. Facility staff notified family during any change of condition or when an incident occurred. The incident was documented, and timely medical care was provided. R1 had nine falls while residing in assisted living and three falls within one month of residing in memory care. On 09/05/24, the facility had a care conference with the family recommending a personal caregiver and a higher level of care for R1. R1 had six additional falls after the care conference. At the time of the complaint visit, Resident Care Coordinator Patricia Pestano was informed that the incident is currently under review and a future civil penalty may apply based on Health and Safety Code § 1569.49. Based on interviews which were conducted and record reviews, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, therefore the above allegation is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8, is being cited on the attached LIC 9099D. An Immediate Civil Penalty of $500.00 was also assessed/charged (refer to the LIC421-IM page). An exit interview was conducted and a copy of this report along with Licensee Rights (LIC 9058 03/22) were provided to Resident Care Coordinator Patricia Pestano, whose signature below confirms receipt of these rights. 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 (Cont. from LIC 9099) For the allegation of Insufficient Staff, RP alleged that facility appeared to be understaffed. Facility schedule shows that on certain days the ratio for care staff and residents will be 1:7 or 1:8. Night shift has three staff scheduled which starts at 10:00 pm. For the allegation of Staff lack training, RP stated that some of the night shift caregivers were not qualified to meet the needs of residents. According to records review, all staff go through the required initial and annual training all through their tenure in the facility. Based on interviews and records review, the department has determined that although the allegations may have happened or is valid, there is not a preponderance of evidence to prove the alleged violation did or did not occur, therefore the allegation is UNSUBSTANTIATED.

Plain-language summary
On January 31, 2026, a resident fell three times in their bedroom; the first two falls did not result in serious injury, but the third fall caused the resident to experience severe pain in their right shoulder area. Rather than call 911 after the third fall, staff provided pain medication and contacted the resident's hospice agency; the next morning, when the resident's shoulder was visibly discolored and still painful, staff transported them to the hospital, where doctors found a broken bone in the upper arm. The facility was cited for not calling 911 immediately after the third fall, as required by state regulations for serious injuries.
“Based on records and interviews, for 1 of 49 residents (R1), who was receiving hospice care services and experiencing an emergency not directly related to the expected course of their terminal illness, Licensee’s staff did not immediately telephone emergency response (9-1-1). This posed a potential health risk to persons in care.”

Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Dang Nguyen conducted an unannounced Case Management - Incident visit. LPA was welcomed by, identified himself to, and discussed the purpose of the visit with Executive Director Katrina Jimenez and Health Services Director Leah Adolfo. Today's visit was in response to an LIC624 Incident Report, which Licensee self-submitted to the CCLD San Diego Regional Office (received on 02/02/2026). Per this LIC624, Resident #1 (R1) had an unwitnessed fall on 01/31/2026, and facility staff subsequently sent R1 to local hospital emergency room (ER) on 02/01/2026. [See LIC 811 Confidential Names List for a description of person identifiers used in this report]. During today’s visit, LPA performed a brief facility tour / welfare check on R1, collected and reviewed relevant care and medical records, and interviewed R1 and multiple pertinent facility staff. Due to their Alzheimer’s Disease diagnosis, R1 was not a reliable historian. However, records and staff interviews taken together showed: On 01/31/2026, R1 fell three (3) times inside their bedroom within one day, at around 11:50 AM, 1:00 PM, and 6:21 PM, respectively. The 11:50 AM fall did not involve any suspected injury. The 1:00 PM fall involved a bump on head, for which 911 paramedics responded, but for which R1 and their responsible person also declined transport to the hospital. The 6:21 PM fall involved pronounced pain to R1’s right shoulder area, which was immediately apparent to responding facility staff. Rather than call 911 again for R1, staff assisted R1 to bed and alerted R1’s hospice agency. Facility staff provided R1 as-needed morphine for pain, and the hospice agency dispatched a nurse a few hours later to perform a follow up visit on R1. [CONTINUED ON LIC 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 LIC 809] However, by the morning of 02/01/2026, R1 remained in pain, and their right shoulder area was now significantly discolored, so staff arranged for R1 to be transported to the hospital ER; R1 departed the facility around 11:03 AM. Per hospital ER records, R1 was diagnosed with a new “closed displaced comminuted fracture of shaft of right humerus.” (A comminuted fracture is a type of injury where the bone breaks in multiple places. A displaced fracture means the fragments have moved out of normal anatomical alignment, creating a gap or misalignment.) CCR 87465(g) requires Licensees to “immediately telephone 9-1-1 if an injury or other circumstance has resulted in an imminent threat to a resident’s health.” Regarding residents receiving hospice care, CCR 87469(c)(3) specifies, “For emergencies not directly related to the expected course of the resident’s terminal illness, the facility staff shall immediately telephone emergency response (9-1-1).” CCLD concluded that the injury to R1’s right shoulder/arm was serious and required staff to call 9-1-1. This injury also was not related to the expected course of R1’s underlying terminal illness/diagnosis. To date: The available evidence did not clearly show that Licensee’s delay in activating 911 worsened R1's injury. The available evidence also showed that Licensee had performed Care Plan updates/reappraisals on R1 in the past, as required. One (1) deficiency was cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22 (refer to the attached LIC 809-D). A Plan of Correction was jointly developed with the Licensee. An exit interview was conducted with Executive Director Katrina Jimenez and Health Services Director Leah Adolfo, to whom a copy of this report, the LIC 809-D, the LIC811 Confidential Names List, and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22) were provided during the visit.

(Continue from LIC9099) Based on records review and interviews with relevant witnesses it was indicated that on December 14, 2023, there was an incident involving R1 and R2. At 6:15 a.m. during safety checks, staff observed R1 lying on the floor in R2’s room. Per staff interviews, there were no witnesses of the incident. Staff obtained immediate medical attention by emergency medical responder personnel for R1 who was transferred to the hospital via ambulance. A detailed review of R1 and R2’s medical records indicated that both residents were diagnosed with dementia and were under memory service care plans. In addition, both residents had a history of “sundowning” (confusion, anxiety, agitation, or aggression that can occur in the late afternoon or early evening) behavior. R1 was non-ambulatory and needed assistance to transfer in and out of bed. R1’s primary diagnosis was Parkinson’s disease; R1 did not have inappropriate or aggressive behavior but was confused/disoriented. R2 was ambulatory and able to independently transfer in and out of bed. R2’s medical records under “mental condition” the box for “Confused/Disoriented” was marked as “yes”. For inappropriate and aggressive behavior, the box was marked as “no”. In addition, both residents were in neighboring rooms, sharing a “Jack and Jill” adjoining bathroom. A review of the admission agreements and the pre-admission assessments for R1 and R2 indicated that they both were new residents (R1 was admitted on 11/18/2023 and R2 was admitted on 11/29/2023), to the facility with no history of aggressive or violent behavior. All the staff that worked on December 14, 2023, were interviewed on the date of the incident. The responsible parties of both residents were interviewed as well as an attempted interview with R2 was conducted on December 14, 2023. Due to R2’s documented dementia medical condition, they were not able to provide relevant details of the incident. Based on interviews with the assigned investigator with the County of San Diego Medical Examiner’s Office, the incident was ruled as “accidental” by the Medical Examiner’s Office. A review of relevant medical reports indicated that R1’s physician stated that R1’s cause of death was determined as blunt force trauma to their head. It was determined there were no witnesses to what, if anything, had occurred directly between residents R1 and R2, such as a physical altercation. According to interviews conducted with facility staff safety check protocols were adhered to during the shift when the event occurred. Safety check logs were obtained and reviewed which confirmed the required documentation of the safety checks.

LPA was welcomed by, identified himself to, and discussed the purpose of the visit with Executive Director Geovanni Aguilar and Resident Services Director Tatiana Soltero. Today's visit was in response to two (2) LIC624 Incident Reports and two (2) SOC341 Reports of Suspected Dependent Adult/Elder Abuse, which licensee self-submitted to the CCLD San Diego Regional Office on 09/08/2023. The reports described alleged personal rights violations committed by Staff #1 (S1) against Resident #1 (R1) and Resident #2 (R2) on 09/05/2023, and which had since come to the licensee’s attention. [See LIC 811 Confidential Names List for a description of select person identifiers used in this report]. During today’s visit, LPA performed a facility tour and welfare check on R1 and R2, finding that both were safe. LPA also collected copies of pertinent care records and interviewed multiple relevant staff. According to R1’s latest LIC602 Physician’s Report (dated 05/09/2023): R1 was diagnosed with “senile degeneration of the brain / dementia.” According to R2’s latest LIC602 Physician’s Report (dated 04/11/2023): R2 was diagnosed with “expressive language disorder” and “other unspecified disorders of the brain.” Manager and staff interviews unanimously showed that both R1 and R2 were cognitively-impaired as part of their baseline condition. LPA likewise observed that neither R1 nor R2 had the memory skills or verbal skills to be reliable interviewees.

S1 used their own hands to physically restrain R1’s hands. S1 then used their fingers to pinch R1’s neck and spoke disrespectfully about R1 in front of them, towards Staff #2 (S2), who witnessed the above. Also during the evening of 09/05/2023, R2 did not want to receive bathroom assistance from S1. R2 was in their wheelchair and grabbed onto the doorframe of their bathroom in protest. Rather than stop, S1 continued to pull on R2’s wheelchair handles until R2 slid out of the wheelchair and onto the floor. This latter act was witnessed by S2 and Staff #3. Staff #4 did not witness the moment R2 slid out, but responded post-incident and corroborated that they personally helped R2 up off the floor. R1 and R2 did not suffer observable injuries from the incident. Records and staff interviews unanimously showed: Licensee became are of the above incidents on 09/06/2023, and immediately placed S1 on administrative leave pending further investigation. The same day S1 was placed on leave, they resigned from employment. Licensee’s own internal investigation concluded that S1 had committed the above alleged actions. A preponderance of evidence exists to show that during the incidents in question, licensee’s staff (S1) did not ensure that residents in care (R1 and R2) were free from humiliation and physical abuse. One (1) deficiency was cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22 (refer to the attached LIC 809-D). A Plan of Correction was jointly developed with the licensee. An exit interview was conducted with Aguilar, to whom a copy of this report, the LIC 809-D, the LIC811 Confidential Names List, and the Licensee/Appeal Rights (LIC9058 03/22) were provided during the visit.
