Yellowtail Home Care

Antelope, CA 95843

6 beds • Est. 2020 (5 years)Accepts Medi-Cal (ALW)


FYI Safety Score

9.3 Excellent

5 state citations (3 serious, 2 minor) and 2 verified complaints since 2021 across 10 inspections. The most serious finding came from a May 2023 complaint investigation: staff administered incorrect medication doses to a resident, giving Sertraline at twice the prescribed strength and Amlodipine at half the prescribed dose, and falsified medication administration records for multiple residents by marking medications as administered and documenting incorrect doses, months, and years, a pattern investigators described as an immediate health and safety concern. A 2023 annual inspection also cited incomplete staff personnel files. In October 2022, a resident eloped from the facility and was found deceased following a traffic accident the next day; 2 follow-up case management visits were conducted and no additional deficiencies were issued from those visits. The 2 most recent annual inspections, in July 2024 and August 2025, found no deficiencies.
