Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Anna Bueno conducted an unannounced visit to the facility to conduct a case management visit and follow up on the supposed sale of facility and property. LPA met with care provider Francis Gramonte who was informed of the purpose of today's visit. LPA phoned licensee and administrator Amparo Liwanag who was informed of the visit. On 10/2/23, the San Bernardino Regional Office received a mailed notice that Licensee is selling their facility. During a phone call between LPA and Licensee on 10/9/23, Licensee Liwanag confirmed that the property is for sale however there were no offers to date. LPA informed Liwanag that the facility license is non transferable and the new owner must submit their application to obtain their own license. During today's visit, LPA Bueno phoned Licensee Liwanag. Liwanag stated that the sale of the home is on hold and that they will revisit this possibility in December 2023. Liwanag added that they gave written notice to residents' responsible parties of the sale but that responsible parties were verbally notified that the sale is on hold. LPA reminded Licensee to provide updates to CCL and to submit a copy of the written notice sent to residents. No deficiency was cited during today's visit.
