Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Christine Kabariti arrived unannounced to conduct a case management - incident visit. LPA met with Assistant Administrator (AA), Armando Guba.

The purpose of the visit is to follow-up on an incident report received on 09/04/2025 for resident (R1) regarding a medication error that was found on 08/25/25.

Based on the incident report, on 08/14/25 R1's medication (M1) was increased from 200mg daily to 225mg daily. On 08/18/25, the new dose of 225mg medication arrived and was to be started. Due to confusion of the changes, the med change was not started until 08/25/25.

On 09/04/25, LPA Monter spoke with the Administrator (ADM), Mark Castillo regarding the medication error. Based on interview, it was stated that the facility staff was giving R1 the incorrect dose of 200mg instead of 225mg. The medroom staff noticed that the new medication change was not "activated" on their E-MAR (electronic medication administrator record).

On 09/22/25, LPA Kabariti interviewed staff (S1) and the AA and obtained records to include R1's e-MAR, centrally stored medication records, and medication list.

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.

Based on interviews and review of R1's e-MAR, it was actually indicated that there was a change in medication order (M1) on 08/18/25 wherein R1's medication was increased to a total of 225mg per day. Per the e-MAR, from 08/18/25 - 08/24/25 R1 was only being administered 125mg.

According to AA, R1's doctor followed up with the facility to clarify if R1 was receiving 125mg or 225mg of M1, which staff confirmed that R1 was only receiving 125mg of M1 from 08/18 - 08/24 based on the e-MAR.

S1 stated that the staff followed whatever was listed on the e-MAR when administering R1's medication. S1 and AA was unable to provide an explanation as to why the medication error was not caught on the e-MAR.

AA contacted ADM who apologized for the inaccuracy of the report, as ADM was also confused about the medication error and was just trying to get the report sent to Licensing.

From 08/25/25 and onward, R1 was receiving the correct dose of 225mg per day per physician's order.

A type A deficiency is being cited today per Title 22 Section 80075(b) wherein the facility did not assist R1 with his/her prescription medications correctly as the facility staff were administering 125mg per day of M1 instead of the physician's order of 225mg per day of M1.

A type B deficiency is being cited today per Title 22 Section 80061(b)(1)(E) wherein the facility did not report the medication error to the Department until 09/04/2025. The medication error was found on 08/25/2025.

Deficiencies are being cited per California Code of Regulations, Title 22. See LIC809D. A civil penalty of $250 was assessed today for a repeat violation of section 80061(b)(1)(E) within a 12 month period. See LIC421FC. This report was reviewed with Assistant Administrator, Armando Guba and a copy of the report and appeal rights was provided. Page 2 of 2.
