Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Vincent Moleski arrived unannounced to conduct a case management visit. LPA Moleski met with facility administrator James Dial and explained the purpose of the visit.

LPA Moleski received an incident report from this facility on 6/24/25. LPA Moleski previously discussed the incident report with staff on 7/8/25. However, due to time constraints, LPA Moleski was unable to complete a case management visit regarding this incident at that time.

The incident report described above states that a resident (R1) was discovered missing around 7:20 p.m. on 6/23/25. R1 lives in a delayed-egress memory care cottage equipped with door alarms. The incident report stated that staff searched the cottage, but could not find R1. Staff continued to search the surrounding areas, and R1 was found in a nearby parking lot off facility property around 7:45 p.m., according to the incident report.

LPA Moleski spoke with R1 during his visit on 7/8/25. R1 did not remember the incident. LPA Moleski reviewed R1's LIC 602, dated 5/23/25, and observed that R1 has a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment and has a history of seizures. R1 is not permitted to leave the facility unassisted, according to their LIC 602. R1 suffers from confusion and has an unsteady gait, according to the LIC 602. R1 is nonambulatory, per the 602.

R1's pre-admission appraisal, dated 6/11/25, indicates that R1 needs special observation and/or night supervision due confusion, forgetfulness, and/or wandering. R1's LIC 602 addendum, dated 5/23/25, indicates that R1 suffers from hallucinations. [continued on 809-C]

FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

LPA Moleski interviewed the cottage's on-duty caregiver (S1) during his visit on 7/8/25 and also on 9/3/25. S1 said that they were sitting near the front doors of the cottage prior to R1 being discovered missing. However, S1 said they heard no alarms, and did not see R1 leave.

22 CCR Section 87705(e)(5) requires that "facility staff shall ensure the continued safety of residents [with a dementia diagnosis] if they wander away from the facility..." Additionally, HSC Section 1569.312(d) requires that staff remain "aware of the resident's general whereabouts..." at all times.

This facility is hereby cited per HSC Section 1569.312(d). As this deficiency involves an absence of supervision, an immediate civil penalty in the amount of $500 is hereby assessed. An exit interview was held with Dial. Appeal rights and a copy of this report were left with Dial.
