What inspectors found at Glendale Post Acute Center
Tap a finding to read the summary. Each one is written from the government report linked under it.
July 2025: Class A citation and F689 (severity G) after a resident on oxygen kept smoking items and drugs in his room
According to the citation, CDPH made an unannounced visit on June 6, 2025 to investigate a complaint about resident neglect and quality of care. Resident 1 had incomplete paraplegia (partial paralysis of the lower body), emphysema (a lung disease), an irregular heartbeat and heart failure, and had orders for continuous oxygen. The 2567 report states he had a history of methamphetamine use and that a hospital drug screen in April 2024 was positive for amphetamine.
CDPH determined the facility failed to assess and monitor him for continued drug use and to put interventions in place to keep him safe. Inspectors found he was documented as a non-smoker in October 2024, yet the facility did not stop him from keeping cigarettes, a glass pipe and lighters. According to the report, lighters were found in his room on June 4, 2025, and the facility did not develop and carry out steps to protect him and other residents, even though he had orders for continuous oxygen. The report states that on June 4 he had a rapid heart rate, low blood oxygen and shortness of breath and was taken by 911 to an acute care hospital, where he tested positive for amphetamines and methamphetamines and needed intubation (a breathing tube). A police report dated June 5 said officers found about one gram of methamphetamine and a meth pipe in his room.
The department issued a Class A citation for patient care with a $25,000 penalty. The federal 2567 report from the same investigation cited F689, the rule on accident hazards and supervision, at severity G, which means actual harm.
April 2025: Class A citation and F600 (severity J) after a CNA sexually abused a resident
According to the citation, CDPH made an unannounced visit on February 25, 2025 to investigate a facility-reported incident of sexual abuse. Resident 1 was a 57-year-old man with a past stroke, encephalopathy (brain disease) and a feeding tube. He had severe cognitive impairment, could not make his own decisions and depended on staff for all care.
CDPH determined the facility failed to protect Resident 1 from sexual abuse by CNA 1 on February 21, 2025. According to the citation, video from a hidden camera that family members had placed in his room showed CNA 1 exposing himself and using Resident 1's hand to touch him, and CNA 1 stated he also touched Resident 1's genitals. The citation states police arrived around 2 a.m. that day and left with CNA 1. Afterward, LVN 2 said Resident 1 had trouble sleeping, the social services director recorded a clear look of disgust on his face, and a psychologist noted hopelessness, frustration, low energy and poor concentration, a change from his usual functioning.
The department issued a Class A citation for patient rights with a $25,000 penalty. The federal 2567 report cited F600, the rule that residents be free from abuse and neglect, at severity J, and states CDPH identified an immediate jeopardy on February 25. According to that report, the facility's accepted removal plan included firing CNA 1 and reporting him to the CNA licensing body, one-to-one supervision for Resident 1, two CNAs for his care, and screening other residents, which found no others affected. The immediate jeopardy was removed on February 26.
December 2024: F880 (severity K) during an outbreak of vomiting and diarrhea among residents and staff
The 2567 report states the facility failed to carry out its infection prevention and control program during an outbreak of gastrointestinal illness (vomiting and diarrhea) from December 5 to December 18, 2024. According to inspectors, 26 of 106 sampled residents and 16 of 150 staff members, including CNAs and LVNs, were sick in that period. Lab results for Residents 1 and 25 came back positive for norovirus, a contagious virus that causes severe vomiting and diarrhea.
Inspectors found the facility did not place the 26 sick residents on transmission-based precautions, did not keep CNA 1 and CNA 2 from caring for residents while they had active vomiting and diarrhea, and did not collect stool samples or investigate the outbreak. The report states the infection preventionist did not start the facility's tracking tool after three or more cases, and the facility did not notify the local health department between December 5 and December 15 as its policy required. Inspectors also found there was no proper handwashing sink near the ice dispensing room, and one CNA did not wash hands before putting ice in a resident's water pitcher.
The 2567 report cited F880, the infection prevention and control rule, at severity K, the immediate jeopardy level for a pattern of problems. According to the report, CDPH identified an immediate jeopardy on December 17, 2024 and removed it on December 19 after verifying the facility's removal plan, which included notifying the local health department that an outbreak investigation had begun. Inspectors wrote that the other 80 residents and 134 staff were also put at risk of infection.
August 2024: F600 (severity K), F602 (severity D) and F609 (severity D) after a resident touched three female residents without consent
The 2567 report states the facility failed to protect three residents, Residents 2, 6 and 7, from nonconsensual sexual contact by Resident 1, who had Alzheimer's disease. According to the report, Resident 1 grabbed Resident 6's left arm and pulled down her gown sleeve on March 10, 2024, swiped his open palms across Resident 7's breasts in the activity room on March 26, and grabbed Resident 2's left arm and left breast with both hands on August 25. Resident 2 said it caused her pain.
Inspectors found the facility did not develop a care plan to monitor Resident 1's behavior after a May 24, 2024 physician order about his inappropriate sexual touching of women, and the interdisciplinary team did not put safeguards in place even though female staff knew of his behavior toward residents and staff. The report states the facility had no system to assign enough staff to supervise him. Resident 7 said she was in shock, Resident 6 said she was upset, and Resident 2 said she felt sad, embarrassed and afraid it could happen again.
The 2567 report cited F600, the rule that residents be free from abuse and neglect, at severity K, the immediate jeopardy level. According to the report, CDPH identified an immediate jeopardy on August 28, 2024 and removed it on August 30 after verifying the facility's plan, which included one-to-one supervision of Resident 1 on all shifts until another placement was found. The same report also cited F602 (freedom from misappropriation and exploitation) and F609 (reporting of alleged violations), both at severity D.

Cal Health Find lists 141 complaint and facility-reported incident intakes for this facility from 2023 through October 30, 2026. CDPH substantiated at least one allegation in 44 of them. 41 intakes involved an allegation in CDPH’s abuse category, and 11 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 Glendale Post Acute Center
Cal Health Find lists 7 intakes for Glendale Post Acute Center from 2023 through October 30, 2026 that included an allegation CDPH classified as sexual abuse (2 from complaints and 5 reported by the facility itself). CDPH substantiated a sexual abuse allegation in 4 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 |

| 2024 | 6 | 3 |
| 2025 | 1 | 1 |
Cited findings on this page whose government reports describe a sexual abuse allegation: April 2025: Class A citation and F600 (severity J) after a CNA sexually abused a resident · August 2024: F600 (severity K), F602 (severity D) and F609 (severity D) after a resident touched three female residents without consent
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.

Staffing at Glendale Post Acute Center
Payroll records Glendale Post Acute Center filed with the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) for April through June 2026 show an average of 3.90 nursing hours per resident per day, counting registered nurses (RNs), licensed vocational nurses and nurse aides.

California requires most skilled nursing facilities to provide at least 3.5 direct care hours per patient day (Health and Safety Code section 1276.65). Counting the RN, LVN and nurse aide hours in the same payroll data, Glendale Post Acute Center was below 3.5 on 1 of 91 days. This is our calculation from CMS data, not a CDPH finding: CDPH counts some staff differently (for example psychiatric technicians in special treatment programs) and can grant waivers.
| Glendale Post Acute Center | LA County median | California average | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total nursing hours per resident per day | 3.90 | 4.32 | 4.54 |
| RN hours per resident per day | 0.34 | 0.46 | 0.68 |

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.
