FYI Safety Score

2.9 Poor

Windchime of Marin has accumulated 28 state citations (17 serious, 11 minor) and 5 verified complaints since 2021 across 29 inspections. A December 2023 inspection found that a caregiver had been working without the required DOJ background clearance and that the facility had failed to report a resident assault to state licensing authorities within the required 7-day timeframe. A substantiated 2024 complaint found a persistent malodor of urine on the 3rd floor, traced to no housekeeping coverage on Sundays. In October 2025, inspectors documented that many resident room windows on the 2nd and 3rd floors had been screwed shut or had non-functional safety locks, creating a fire egress hazard; the facility received a conditional fire clearance through September 2026 pending corrections. Also in October 2025, a substantiated complaint found that a newly admitted resident went approximately 3 weeks without a bath or shower, and that staff failed to notify the resident's responsible party of a fall in a timely manner, informing them in person hours after the incident occurred.
