FYI Safety Score

2.5 Poor

Sea Cliff Assisted Living has 19 state citations (9 serious, 10 minor) and 4 verified complaints since 2022 across 28 inspections. A July 2025 complaint was substantiated after inspectors found the facility failed to ensure incontinence care was provided to residents, a finding characterized as posing an immediate health and safety risk; inspectors issued a serious citation for care and supervision and a minor citation for facility conditions, and the facility was required to conduct staff in-service training on incontinence care. Separately, a 2024 complaint investigation documented a resident who experienced 2 unwitnessed falls within 6 days in December 2023, the first resulting in a leg fracture attributed to unlocked wheelchair wheels, and the second resulting in traumatic subdural hemorrhage requiring hospitalization. A 2023 complaint investigation documented a fall where 2 staff members were unable to lift the resident and called 911; a verbal altercation between a staff member and the resident was reported, the facility self-reported the incident to licensing, and the involved staff member was suspended. The most recent inspection on February 15, 2026 concluded without citing additional deficiencies.
