Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Christi Coppo arrived unannounced to conduct a case management visit and was greeted by facility designee. Administrator (Admin) Guadalupe Garcia was present. Admin certificate 7030880740 expires 5/4/27.

On 5/4/26 CCL received an Incident Report indicating a medication error for resident (R1). Report indicates that on 5/1/26, at approximately 8:45pm R1 was administered one (1) tab of 1mg Benztropine instead of the prescribed two (2) tabs of 1mg Benztropine on 4/29/26 and 4/30/26 (deficiency cited, see 809D). R1 was monitored for adverse reaction and was observed to have no adverse reactions. All required partied were notified. Per Redwood Family Care Network District Manager (DM), Arneatha Simon, the error was observed when the medication bubble pack was reviewed on 5/1/26. Per DM, staff were trained on medication management on 5/4/26. LPA reviewed training records. Additionally, staff responsible for error are to receive disciplinary action, actions are pending corporate review and will be administered within 7 days.

On 5/14/26 CCL received an Incident Report indicating a medication error for resident (R2). On 5/12/26, during a medication audit, it was discovered that R2 did not have a doctor's order on file for their Omeprazole 20mg, given twice daily (deficiency cited, see 809D). Per DM, it was determined that R2 arrived at the facility with the medication and a MAR was created for administration. There was record of a request for a formal order from the treating physician with no response. Rene Litzenberg, RN, requested the doctor order on 5/12/26, and DM sent a second request via the KP.org communication portal on 5/13/26. There was no response by the treating physician at the end of the business day. At approximately 7:00pm on 5/13/26 R2 was taken to Kaiser to determine if the medication needed to continue to be administered. R2 returned to the facility at approximately 10:30pm with a doctor order to administer Omeprazole 20mg twice daily.

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.
