What state inspectors found

1 inspection in the last two years · 1 with findings

Families should read this one carefully. In October 2024 the state investigated a complaint at Golden Life Residential and cited deficiencies matching both allegations: the home had no licensed administrator, and it had no staff at all to care for its 19 residents. The surveyor watched the only employee present tell the owner they would no longer work there, hand over a facility key, and leave; the owner then confirmed there was no one else to care for residents. The owner had fired the administrator that morning, and an adult protective services worker who was on site said residents would be moved to other facilities that day. The one genuine positive in the record is that when the surveyor asked each of the 19 residents individually that evening, all of them said they felt safe and were in good health — but they were answering while the home had no staff on duty, and that is not verification that their care needs were being met. Both deficiencies were cited as widespread, affecting the home as a whole, and this bundle contains no later inspection showing anything was fixed.

When the surveyor asked each of the 19 residents individually — at 6:00 p.m. on October 4, 2024, after the last employee had walked out and with no staff on duty — every one of them said they lived there, felt safe, and were in good health. 10-05-2024

What the state also noted

— This survey was NOT clean. Two deficiencies were cited, both at the state's widespread level — its designation for a problem affecting or with the potential to affect all residents.
— Both complaint allegations resulted in citations: no licensed/qualified administrator, and failure to employ sufficient qualified staff.
— The surveyor documented that the sole employee present quit and left during the visit, and that the owner then confirmed there were no employees to care for residents.
— The administrator had been fired that morning and the replacement was not yet an employee; the owner acknowledged the home had no qualified administrator.
— Adult protective services was on site and stated residents would be relocated to other facilities that day. This is a sign of how serious the situation was, not a service the facility provided.
— The residents' statements that they felt safe were collected during the same visit at which the home had no staff and no administrator. They record what residents said in that moment; they are not an assessment that care was adequate.
— Only one survey appears in the last 24 months, and this bundle contains no revisit, follow-up report, or later survey showing the staffing and administrator problems were corrected. Nothing here describes the facility's condition, staffing, or licensure status after October 2024.
— The report contains a date inconsistency likely from scanning — the narrative says the investigation was "initiated 05/05/2023" while every other reference gives October 4-5, 2024.
