Read from the State's licensing data Oct 26, 2026; it updates weekly.

Sections cited by area groups the regulation the State cited each time, from its licensing download, under that section's heading in California's rules for assisted living (Title 22), for example medications and medical care (section 87465, Incidental Medical and Dental Care Services), staffing (87411, Personnel Requirements), personal rights (87468.1 and 87468.2), dementia care (87705) and background checks (87355); the years are the span of its plan-of-correction dates, and the counts can run a little higher than the Type A and Type B total. The State notes that citations may be under appeal or already corrected, so open the report before you judge a number. Every section in each area.

• "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)
• "There is no difference between an inconclusive and an unsubstantiated complaint allegation. Both terms mean that there was no preponderance of evidence to prove that an alleged violation occurred." (State of California)
• Type A: "It is for the most serious type of violations in which there is an immediate risk to the health, safety or personal rights of those in care." (State of California)
• "This site contains reports for the most recent 60 months. All reports beyond 60 months are maintained at the facility and the local state licensing Regional Office." (State of California)
• "The data is updated weekly." (State of California)

The State calls this record "an initial point of inquiry". Every report behind these counts is on its page for State #374603462.

1. Ask to see the plan of correction for each citation in the record (any area cited), 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. Memory care levels: how they decide a resident's care level, and what each level adds to the monthly price.
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.
