FYI Safety Score

4.8 Poor

Sunrise Assisted Living of Carmichael has received 13 state citations (4 serious, 9 minor) and 14 verified complaints since 2021 across 27 inspections. The most significant findings involve repeated medication management failures: a December 2023 investigation found medications off-count for multiple residents with no documented refusals, and no licensed nurse on duty during an event when a resident was due insulin before a meal. As recently as September 2025, the Executive Director administered an antibiotic to a resident without a medication order on file. A 2022 investigation found the facility had retained a resident with a Stage III pressure injury, a prohibited condition, and that exit doors had been blocked with furniture to prevent wandering residents from leaving, with a former staff member reporting this occurred regularly during low-staffing shifts. A separate 2022 investigation substantiated a failure to report requirements violation. A 2021 investigation found that staff failed to notify a resident's conservator of a positive UTI diagnosis despite multiple documented contacts about the resident's care.
