Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs), Kristina Ryan and Alexandre Vo, conducted a Case Management based on observations during an unrelated inspection. LPAs discussed the topic with Executive Director, Mariano Perez.

During the inspection, LPAs observed that the memory care units, Garden House Number 2 and Garden House Number 3, which both have a capacity of over sixteen, did not contain a signal system in each living unit. A deficiency is being cited in accordance with California Code of Regulations, Title 22, Division 6, Chapter 8 and listed on the LIC809D.

A plan of correction was developed with the Executive Director. A copy of this report, LIC809D, and Licensee's Rights (9058 01/16) were provided to the Executive Director via electronic mail. An e-mail confirmation was requested from the Executive Director.
