25 | On 07/012026, at approximately 3:30 PM, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Julie Florio met with Martha Martinez, Designated Responsible Party for a Case Management visit to follow up on substantiated complaint allegations; complaint number 21-AS-20250411091753.
On August 11, 2025, the Department concluded an investigation which alleged that staff caused injuries to a resident while in care.
The licensee was cited for violating Health and Safety Code (H&S) §1569.269(a)(6) Enumerated rights; severability.
At the time of the complaint visit on August 11, 2025, an immediate civil penalty of $500 was issued and the licensee was informed that an additional civil penalty 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. Per 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 facility not providing proper care and supervision resulting in a resident (R1) falling. R1 sustained a right nasal bone fracture, a frontal scalp hematoma, and bruising of the central forehead, which resulted in hospitalization.
Today, 07/01/2026, 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 in the amount of $10,000.
