LPA met with Director, Jessica Smith. Owner, Navin Chugh arrived during the inspection. LPA explained the purpose of the inspection.

Based on observations from video footage, facility will receive two type B deficiencies. ***California Code of Regulations, (Title 22, Div. 12, Ch 3) were cited on this day.
