Inspection Report Summary for The Reserve at Thousand Oaks

Reserve at Thousand Oaks (facility number 197609632) received three unannounced evaluations in 2022 and a preliminary review in 2023. All visits were conducted by Licensing Program Analyst Ashley Smith, who met with Director Prisila Busto and later Executive Director Elizabeth Spencer. The facility, a three‑story 740‑type assisted‑living home in Thousand Oaks, California, houses 170 residents (150 census). No health‑and‑safety hazards were noted during any of the inspections, and the facility complied with infection‑control protocols, including temperature checks, hand‑sanitizer stations, and adequate PPE supplies. In the annual visit on 24 June 2022, the evaluator praised the cleanliness of the building, the availability of fresh food from Sysco, and the maintenance of common areas and outdoor spaces, issuing no citations.

The first unannounced case‑management visit on 26 May 2022 addressed a Report of Suspected Dependent Adult/Elder Abuse filed on 25 May 2022, alleging a violation of personal rights against Resident #1. The evaluator collected documents and confirmed the incident was forwarded to the Investigation Branch, where Investigator Edward Hector was assigned. No immediate health risks were identified, and the report was signed and emailed to the Executive Director. A follow‑up case‑management visit on 23 August 2022 concluded the investigation. Interview data revealed that Staff #1 (S1) had engaged in hugging and kissing residents, had accepted cash, gift cards, and a laptop, and had breached facility policy prohibiting gratuities. Although evidence was insufficient to substantiate a claim of sexual abuse, S1 was placed on administrative leave, subsequently resigned, and was no longer employed. The evaluator documented a deficiency under Title 22 Section 87468.1(a)(1) concerning personal rights violations and issued a Plan of Corrections with a due date of 30 August 2022.

Across all inspections, the facility demonstrated compliance with environmental and infection‑control standards but exhibited recurring concerns regarding staff‑resident boundary violations. The recorded deficiency underscores the need for stronger policies and training to safeguard resident dignity and uphold California’s personal‑rights requirements. The 7 July 2023 report was incomplete, but the existing findings highlight both strengths in care provision and critical areas requiring corrective action.
