FYI Safety Score

1.7 Severe

Marin Terrace has recorded 42 state citations (17 serious, 25 minor) and 11 verified complaints since 2022 across 24 inspections, with the most recent inspection on March 10, 2026. Among the most serious verified findings: in July 2024, a resident was found deceased and paramedics were not called for 90 minutes while staff waited for a family member's permission before contacting emergency services. A separate 2024 investigation found that night staff were locking a building door to block a resident from re-entering rather than checking on their care needs, and a resident was photographed on the floor due to missed repositioning checks. In 2023, inspectors confirmed through staff interviews that caregivers had stopped assisting an aggressive resident with daily living activities, and the resident had gone 2 to 3 weeks without bathing. Citations across multiple inspection years also include failure to document changes in resident condition, maintain required admission records, and report resident hospitalizations to state regulators within required timeframes.
