Inspection Report Summary for Magdalene Residential Care

Magdalene Residential Care Facility, a six‑bed community care setting in Sunnyvale, underwent four unannounced annual evaluations by the California Department of Social Services (CCLD) between 2021 and 2025. In the first visit (06/22/2021) the licensing program analyst (LPA) observed robust infection‑control measures: a single entry point, temperature checks, hand‑sanitizer stations, and a COVID‑19 mitigation plan. The facility was deemed sanitary, and all staff were wearing masks. No deficiencies were cited, though an advisory note (LIC 9102) was issued for ongoing attention.

The second inspection (07/26/2022) focused again on infection control. The LPA and licensing program manager noted two isolation rooms for COVID‑positive residents, a dedicated staff member for those cases, and appropriate symptom‑screening signage. Staff continued to wear masks, and the visit concluded without citations. Administrators were requested to provide copies of LIC 500 and LIC 610, and a written copy of the report was delivered to the facility.

The 07/30/2024 inspection revealed several regulatory deficiencies. The facility failed to maintain a one‑year record of centrally stored prescription medications, lacking documentation for at least one resident’s medication. Staff first‑aid certifications were out of date, and two residents using half‑bed rails lacked the required physician orders. Deficiencies were cited under CCR 87465(h)(6), 87466(h)(6), 87411(c)(1), and 87608(a)(3), with a Plan of Correction deadline of 08/06/2024. Additional observations noted appropriate fire safety equipment and adequate food supplies, but the overall compliance picture had deteriorated from earlier visits, emphasizing documentation and training gaps.

The most recent inspection (07/08/2025) was conducted unannounced, beginning at 08:30 AM and concluding at 12:15 PM, with the LPA meeting staff member Elsa Lopez. Narrative details of the findings were not provided in the available text. Nonetheless, the continuation of annual reviews indicates ongoing regulatory oversight and the facility’s obligation to address any identified issues promptly. Overall, the reports show an initial emphasis on infection control that has shifted over time toward documentation, staff training, and resident safety protocols, underscoring the evolving compliance priorities for small residential care homes.

Frequently Asked Questions

What government services provide money for senior housing?

Several government programs offer financial assistance for senior housing in various countries, focusing on the United States for a broad overview:

  • Medicaid: Medicaid is a state and federally funded program that can cover the costs of nursing home care for those who meet eligibility criteria, including income and asset limits. Some states also offer Medicaid waivers that help pay for home and community-based services to prevent or delay nursing home placement.
  • Medicare: Medicare, primarily a health insurance program for people aged 65 and over, does not cover long-term housing costs. However, it can cover short-term stays in a skilled nursing facility under specific conditions following a hospital stay.
  • Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program: This program provides housing for low-income seniors. It offers rental assistance and access to supportive services, such as cleaning, cooking, and transportation.
  • Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Properties: While not a direct subsidy, LIHTC encourages developers to create affordable housing. Seniors with low incomes can find reduced-rent apartments through this program.
  • State and Local Programs: Many states, counties, and cities offer their own programs to assist seniors with housing costs. These can include property tax relief programs, rental assistance programs, and programs that offer affordable senior housing options.
  • Veterans Affairs (VA): The VA offers several programs for veterans, including the Aid and Attendance benefit, which provides monthly payments to veterans who require the aid of another person, or are housebound, to help cover the cost of care in homes, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.
  • Social Security: While Social Security primarily provides retirement income, for many seniors, these benefits are a crucial part of their budget, including housing costs.
How do you pick the homes you recommend?

Before recommending homes, we conduct a thorough evaluation on crucial factors that define a senior home such as the quality of care they provide, the reputation of the organization, and a comprehensive review of community testimonials as well. Every detail is assessed to assure that seniors are offered not just senior care options, but trustworthy homes where they can experience the care that they deserve.

Do you help families that need Medicaid?

Yes. Assisting families who need Medicaid is important to us as it plays a crucial role in offering financial support to seniors confronting economic challenges. We would like to keep essential healthcare services accessible to all community members, irrespective of one’s financial circumstances.

We extend our services at no cost, ensuring that families and seniors can benefit from tailored assistance in their search for care and home options.
