State citations and penalties (CDPH)
CDPH's citations come in three classes: AA (a substantial factor in a resident's death), A (imminent danger or a substantial probability of death or serious harm) and B (a direct relationship to residents' health, safety or security). Care homes licensed by Social Services use Type A/B instead: a different agency and scale. State citations explained

Federal inspections
CDPH inspects Medi-Cal certified ICFs for CMS (the federal agency calls these "surveys"). Each finding has a code: W for a care or rights rule, E for emergency preparedness, K for fire safety. A "condition-level" finding is the most serious kind: a whole area of care failed. How to read an ICF inspection
Content note: these federal findings describe residents' care and can include abuse, neglect, injuries and medical details. They're shown as CMS published them; residents are identified only by number (such as "Client 1").

From CMS's inspection data, saved Oct 26, 2026; data after March 19, 2026 may be incomplete while CMS's systems migrate. Plans of correction and State-only (licensing) findings aren't in CMS's file; the official federal reports (form CMS-2567) on CalHealthFind have them.
Complaints and reported incidents
CDPH doesn't publish complaints or facility-reported incidents as a bulk file, so they aren't on ICFLookup. Its CalHealthFind page for this facility lists them (intake date, allegation category and whether each was substantiated), along with state licensing findings and ownership details.
Federal inspections that came from a complaint or an incident report do appear above, marked "Complaint inspection".
