  • "One or more citations may be under appeal and/or may have been corrected. Contact the State Licensing Office for more information." (State of California)

Questions to ask on a tour

  1. Ask to see the plan of correction for each citation in the record (medications and medical care 1, resident records and admission agreements 1), and what changed after it.
  2. Staffing on nights and weekends: how many caregivers are on the floor, and how often the same people work with your parent.
  3. The secured perimeter: the State approved delayed egress and a locked perimeter here. Ask how residents get outside, and how the doors work in an emergency.
  4. The full monthly price in writing: base rate, care levels, medication management and what makes the price go up.
  5. Hospice: the State notes a hospice waiver here. Ask whether your parent could stay if they need hospice care, and which hospices work with the home.
  6. Move-out terms: what notice they give, and what happens to prepaid fees.
