What Type A and Type B mean
Type A
Violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
Type B
Violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.

Both classifications are published by California CDSS and are shown as published. SeniorLivingFacts does not rename them or add a severity level of its own.

Last 36 months

No inspection in the last 12 months, so a zero above means no record rather than a clean visit.

Repeated topics

Topics cited in more than one report during the last 36 months. A repeat may show a pattern worth asking about. Each date opens its report below.

No topic repeats in the last 36 months

No deficiency topic appears in more than one report during that window. This does not establish that nothing repeated earlier in the five-year record, and it is not a statement about current conditions.
