Financial Penalties and Violations
The state of California and the federal government have the legal obligation for monitoring every nursing facility and impose monetary fines or deny payments through Medicare if the facility has violated established nursing home regulations and rules.

Medicare has cited this facility for abuse. Medicare says that “every nursing home resident deserves to retain their basic human dignity and be treated with respect at all times. Abuse and neglect are never acceptable.” Nursing homes “cited for abuse are required to take steps to protect their residents.”

- Failure to Protect Every Resident from All Forms of Abuse Including Physical and Sexual Assault, Physical Punishment, and Neglect by Anybody – citation #F600 date May 17, 2019
The state investigators determined the nursing home "failed to provide an environment free from sexual abuse, when [a severely, cognitively impaired resident], a victim of previous sexual abuse, was left out in the lobby with no staff supervision. This [failure enabled another resident], who had a history of being sexually inappropriate to [the first resident] on three separate occasions, to sexually molest [the resident] while out in the lobby.”
The state investigators determined that “this failure to provide adequate supervision to [both residents] resulted in [the second resident] to be the victim of sexual abuse for the fourth time by [the sexually aggressive resident].” A Progress Note indicated that “it was alleged that another resident took her hand and was rubbing his [genitals] with her hand in the hallway when he was interrupted by another resident.”
Other documentation shows that the third resident’s family member proceeded to inform a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and a Licensed Vocational Nurse “that while sitting in the dining room, she observed [the sexually aggressive resident] had his hand up [the first resident’s] shirt.” On a separate occasion, the sexually aggressive resident was found touching parts of the first resident’s “breast in the hallway.”
A subsequent Progress Note indicated that the sexually injured resident “had been subjected to sexual inappropriateness by [the aggressive resident]” on three occasions. One Certified Nursing Assistant told the investigators that “it was hard for them to watch the residents all the time.” The CNA stated that all of the assistants “have a lot of residents, and they tend to get busy.”
