Inspection Report Summary for Huntington Terrace

Huntington Terrace, a licensed assisted‑living and memory‑care facility in Huntington Beach, has undergone a series of unannounced inspections and case‑management visits from the California Department of Social Services (CCLD) over the past four years. Each evaluation—whether a routine annual visit in July 2021, June 2022, July 2022, or February 2025, or a case‑management inquiry in October 2024—was conducted by Licensing Program Analyst Jenifer Tirre, sometimes accompanied by additional staff. In every instance the facility demonstrated full compliance with regulatory standards: proper COVID‑19 signage and temperature monitoring, up‑to‑date department postings, fully charged fire extinguishers, functioning smoke detectors, adequate PPE, and maintained fire‑drill records. The medical record reviews confirmed current emergency contacts, physicians’ reports, and a 30‑day supply of medications for all residents. The facility’s kitchen and storage areas met food‑safety requirements, and all resident rooms and common spaces were observed to be in good condition, with residents engaged in meals and group activities.

Across the visits, a consistent pattern emerged: the facility’s physical plant and administrative systems consistently passed inspection with no deficiencies reported. The LPA noted that residents were comfortably housed in a three‑story building with an enclosed pool, laundry, theater, salon, and fitness center, and that all rooms met department regulations. Fire safety compliance was confirmed each time, with an array of fully charged extinguishers, evacuation chairs, and recent fire‑drill documentation. Infection‑control measures—screening protocols, sanitizing stations, and posted posters—were observed in all visits. These findings underscore the facility’s ongoing dedication to resident safety, quality of care, and regulatory adherence.

The most recent October 2024 case‑management visit addressed a self‑reported incident involving a resident. The LPA gathered bank statements, staff and resident rosters, and a physician’s report, and conducted interviews with the business office manager and the resident. No deficiencies were identified, and the report was issued without corrective action. Overall, the cumulative inspection history indicates that Huntington Terrace has maintained a high standard of care and safety, with no recorded violations or areas requiring improvement. The consistent, unannounced nature of these evaluations provides strong evidence of the facility’s ongoing compliance and its responsiveness to the Department’s oversight.
