September 2024: Class A citation and F689 (severity J) after a resident drank hand sanitizer
CDPH made an unannounced visit on July 23, 2024, to investigate a complaint about resident neglect and safety. According to the citation, Resident 1 had dementia and severe cognitive impairment, and her wandering care plan called for constant monitoring and a hazard-free environment. On July 7, 2024, she drank about 165 cc of hand sanitizer. She was sent to an acute care hospital and diagnosed with toxic encephalopathy (a brain disorder caused by a toxic substance) from the sanitizer.
A licensed vocational nurse told inspectors that, while sitting inside the nurses' station, he watched Resident 1, who was sitting in a wheelchair, grab a full bottle of sanitizer, open it and start drinking. The nurse said Resident 1 was known to put things in her mouth, but that behavior was not in her care plan. On July 23, CDPH found an unstaffed reception desk with a sanitizer bottle on it, a loose bottle in the admissions office, sanitizing wipes within her reach in the dining room, and an unlocked maintenance room with bleach and other chemicals.
CDPH issued a Class A citation with a $20,000 penalty. The related 2567 report cited F689 (severity J) and states an immediate jeopardy was identified on July 24, 2024. According to the report, the removal plan included one-to-one supervision of Resident 1 while awake, locking the maintenance room and removing loose sanitizer bottles, and the immediate jeopardy was removed on July 26.
May 2023: F686 (severity G) after a resident developed a pressure ulcer
The 2567 report states inspectors found the facility failed to prevent and promptly identify a pressure ulcer (a bed sore caused by prolonged pressure on the skin) for Resident 1. According to the report, staff did not turn and reposition Resident 1 every two hours as the facility's own policy required, and did not perform daily, weekly and quarterly skin assessments.
Inspectors found Resident 1 was admitted in September 2022 with a stroke, diabetes and generalized muscle weakness. A risk assessment scored the resident as at risk for pressure ulcers, and the care plan called for turning every two hours and regular skin checks. An April 2023 assessment recorded severely impaired cognition, full dependence on staff for bed mobility, and an inability to walk.
According to the report, documents dated May 10, 2023, listed deep tissue pressure injuries on both feet and the right heel, a skin tear and a blister on a toe, and a physician ordered a low air loss mattress and a wound consult that day. The report states Resident 1 developed a blister on the left buttock and left flank on May 15, 2023, staged as a Stage II pressure ulcer (partial loss of the outer skin layers). A May 19 physician order noted pain during restorative and physical therapy. The federal survey cited F686 (severity G).
February 2023: Class A citation (penalty trebled) after a resident left the facility twice and was hospitalized
CDPH made an unannounced visit on December 28, 2022, to investigate a complaint about Resident 1's quality of care. According to the citation, Resident 1 was admitted in January 2022 with dementia and a history of falls. A physician's order called for a Wander Guard (a bracelet that sets off a door alarm near exits) on his left arm, checked every shift, and his care plan said he tended to wander outside.
CDPH found that when Resident 1 returned from a COVID-19 hospital stay in August 2022, his readmission orders did not include the Wander Guard and his care plan was not updated for wandering. The department determined the facility failed to update his elopement care plan, including checks of the Wander Guard, failed to supervise him as its policy required, and failed to make sure the exit alarms worked.
According to the citation, Resident 1 was last seen at 6:45 a.m. on December 14, 2022, and was missing when the 7 a.m. shift started. Hospital records cited by CDPH state he was found confused and minimally responsive on a park bench, and he was admitted with cuts and a hematoma (a collection of clotted blood) on his forehead. The citation states he left again on December 22 and was admitted to a second hospital on December 24 with blunt head trauma. CDPH issued a Class A citation with a $25,000 penalty, trebled to $75,000.
February 2023: Class A citation (penalty trebled) after a resident left the facility twice
CDPH made an unannounced visit on December 28, 2022, to investigate a complaint about quality of care. According to the citation, Resident 2 was admitted in February 2022 with dementia and a history of falls. A physician's order called for a Wander Guard alarm bracelet, and his care plan noted he had left another facility before and told staff to monitor his whereabouts.
According to the citation, on March 6, 2022, a nurse could not find Resident 2 during 12:30 p.m. rounds. Police called at 1:05 a.m. the next day to say they had found him on the street and brought him back at 2:10 a.m. On November 1, 2022, staff noted at 5 p.m. that he was not in his room, and the next day a hospital called to say he had been admitted. Hospital records cited by CDPH state he fell while walking on a sidewalk and had a 3-centimeter cut above his left eyebrow that needed stitches.
CDPH found the facility failed to update his elopement care plan, including monitoring his whereabouts, and failed to supervise him. The director of nursing told inspectors there was no record of how staff tracked his whereabouts, his care plan did not say how often to check on him, and his care plans were not updated after the first elopement. CDPH issued a Class A citation with a $25,000 penalty, trebled to $75,000.

| 2024 | 21 | 17 | 4 | 13 |
| 2025 | 11 | 10 | 1 | 3 |
| 2026 | 10 | 8 | 2 | 2 |
Cal Health Find lists 57 complaint and facility-reported incident intakes for this facility from 2023 through October 30, 2026. CDPH substantiated at least one allegation in 25 of them. 14 intakes involved an allegation in CDPH’s abuse category, and 1 of those had an abuse allegation substantiated. An intake can contain several allegations; “unsubstantiated” means CDPH did not find enough evidence, not that nothing happened.
Sexual abuse reports at Temple Park Convalescent Hospital
Cal Health Find lists 1 intake for Temple Park Convalescent Hospital from 2023 through October 30, 2026 that included an allegation CDPH classified as sexual abuse (1 from complaints and 0 reported by the facility itself). CDPH substantiated a sexual abuse allegation in 0 of them. Federal rules require a nursing home to report an abuse allegation to the state within two hours, so a facility-reported incident means staff raised the allegation, not that it was proven. “Unsubstantiated” means CDPH did not find enough evidence; it does not mean nothing happened.
| Year | Intakes with a sexual abuse allegation | Substantiated |
|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 1 | 0 |
Warning signs include bruising or bleeding in the genital area or inner thighs, a new genital infection, torn or stained underclothing, and a resident who suddenly fears a particular staff member or resists being bathed or changed. If you suspect sexual abuse, call 911 or local police first, ask that the resident not be bathed before a medical exam, and then report it to CDPH and the long-term care ombudsman.

Temple Park Convalescent Hospital lawsuits and criminal cases
We searched California Attorney General and Los Angeles County District Attorney announcements and news coverage for Temple Park Convalescent Hospital and its licensee and found no public criminal case or civil lawsuit we could tie to this facility as of October 30, 2026. Many civil cases settle quietly or are not covered by the press, so this is not a complete court search.
What this record means for your family
California uses classes for state citations. Under Health and Safety Code section 1424 ↗, a Class AA citation is a Class A violation that CDPH determined was a direct proximate cause of a resident’s death. A Class A citation means CDPH found an imminent danger, or a substantial probability, that death or serious physical harm would result. Class B covers violations with a direct or immediate relationship to residents’ health, safety or security.
Federal deficiencies carry a letter from A to L. G, H and I mean inspectors found actual harm to residents; J, K and L mean immediate jeopardy, the most serious level. F600 is the federal rule that residents be free from abuse and neglect; F609 and F610 cover reporting and investigating allegations; F689 covers accidents and supervision; F686 covers pressure injuries.
Warning signs worth asking about: unexplained bruises or fractures, new bed sores, sudden weight loss or dehydration, a resident who becomes fearful or withdrawn around certain staff, and calls that go unanswered.
