What happened

CDPH records identify fourteen citations issued September 21–25, 2026 across thirteen facilities, with two at Intercommunity Care Center. The recorded initial assessment amounts total $115,500. They include $60,000 for one Intercommunity patient-care citation, $25,000 for Sunnyside Nursing Center and $3,500 for Coral Cove Post Acute’s Willful Material Falsification citation. These are initial amounts attached to dated issuance records, not collections or proof of final appeal outcomes. A later export does not establish the historical Open/Closed status, balances or timing of any increases.

Six Abuse/Facility Not Self Reported rows concern Lindsay Gardens, Solaria Care–Auburn, Southland, Capital Post Acute, Intercommunity and Sharon Care Center. The facilities include skilled nursing, pediatric day health/respite and intermediate care for people with developmental disabilities, so this is not fourteen nursing-home cases. Violation dates predate the issue dates. Categories and legal references support targeted review but do not supply complete incident narratives, resident outcomes or corrective plans; those require the underlying citations.
