Inspection Report Summary for The Pinnacles at Burton
The four annual inspections of Beverly Hills Carmel Retirement Hotel, located at 8750 Burton Way in Los Angeles, consistently demonstrated compliance with California’s community‑care licensing standards. Each visit was unannounced, required annually, and conducted by a designated Licensing Program Analyst (LPA). Administrators Bernice Pulanco, along with Business Manager Boris Tamasi in the most recent inspection, met the LPAs and explained the purpose of the visits.
Across the 2021, 2022, and two 2023 inspections, the facility maintained a stable census, ranging from 51 to 55 residents, with a mix of ambulatory and non‑ambulatory residents. The four‑story structure, with 37 bedrooms and 47 bathrooms, featured a well‑equipped lobby, multiple common areas, and a fully functional industrial kitchen. All rooms and common spaces were found to contain the mandated furnishings and were free of hazards, with adequate lighting and temperature control. Sanitary facilities met accessibility requirements, and all bathrooms were stocked, cleaned daily, and equipped with safety grab bars and non‑skid mats. Fire safety systems, including smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, sprinkler systems, and fire extinguishers, were inspected and found to be fully operational, with recent servicing by the Los Angeles Fire Department.
Infection control practices were a central focus of each review. The facility maintained sanitizing stations at entry points, logged visitor temperatures, and kept additional supplies locked in a dedicated storage room. Staff and residents consistently wore masks, and temperature checks were conducted daily for residents. Personal protective equipment was stocked for 30 to 60 days, and isolation protocols were in place for private rooms. Medication rooms were locked and secure, and medication administration records were complete and matched to resident files. All required resident and staff documentation, including liability insurance, was current.
No deficiencies or citations were identified in any of the inspections, and all LPAs reported full compliance with the California Code of Regulations. The consistent findings suggest that Beverly Hills Carmel Retirement Hotel maintains robust standards of care, safety, and regulatory compliance, with no emerging patterns of concern across the examined periods.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
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.
