April 2024: F600 (severity G) after a resident pulled another resident's hair and she fell
Inspectors conducted a certification survey at the facility in April 2024. The 2567 report states that at about 7:55 a.m. on April 7, 2024, Resident 106 went toward Resident 100, grabbed her and pulled her by the hair, and she fell to the floor. Resident 100 told inspectors Resident 106 pulled her hair and pulled her out of her wheelchair onto the floor. Resident 100 had intact cognition, and Resident 106 had severely impaired cognition.
According to the report, Resident 100 had slight bleeding on her scalp from Resident 106's fingernails and pain in her left ankle. She told inspectors she was "shaken" by the incident and that "it was scary." A licensed vocational nurse and a registered nurse told inspectors the incident was physical abuse. The director of nursing said it could possibly have been prevented if staff had taken Resident 106 back to that resident's room, and the administrator and director of nursing both said the hair pulling was deliberate.
Inspectors found the facility failed to protect Resident 100's right to be free from physical abuse by another resident. According to the 2567 report, the facility's own abuse prevention policy defined abuse as the willful infliction of injury, with willful meaning the person acted deliberately. The survey cited F600 (free from abuse and neglect) at severity G.

|---|---|---|
| 2024 | 1 | 0 |
| 2025 | 1 | 0 |
| 2026 | 4 | 0 |

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.
