33 state citations (19 serious, 14 minor) and 6 verified complaints since 2023 across 15 inspections. Recurring violations include staff working without required fingerprint clearance, which inspectors cited as an immediate health and safety risk on multiple visits. In September 2025, a staff member was locked outside for approximately 3 hours, leaving 2 residents unattended inside with no way to contact the administrator; the same visit found a broken front doorknob and that no incident report had been filed with the state. A July 2025 complaint visit documented a second failure to report after a resident was taken to the emergency room. Substantiated findings include inadequate meal portions, food stored without proper sealing, a can of bug spray stored near cooking equipment, and medications left accessible in the kitchen. A December 2024 inspection found a staff member unable to communicate in English with residents, the front entrance padlocked with only staff holding a key, and another unassociated staff member who had not completed required fingerprint clearance.
Simple Touch Board and Care is a 6-bed residential care home in Canoga Park that appears to be part of a small family-run network also operating locations in Chatsworth and Santa Monica under the 'A Caring Touch' brand. The homes focus on board and care with a residential feel, offering 24/7 supervision, home-cooked meals, and activities.
A therapy dog named Coco is part of the household. Licensed since 2024, the operation is run by a mother-son team.
Family-run operation with a personal touch
Run by a mother-son team, with the son as director and the mother as activities director. This level of family involvement typically means more direct accountability and a genuine stake in resident well-being.
Therapy dog on site
A therapy dog is part of the household. Animal-assisted interaction has real benefits for seniors, including reducing anxiety and encouraging social engagement. Not something you find at every board and care.
Part of a small multi-home network
The operators run additional homes in Chatsworth and Santa Monica. A small network can mean shared resources and backup staffing while still maintaining the intimate board and care feel.
Below-average safety record
The FYI Safety Score™ is 0.2 out of 10 (Poor), based on state inspection data. The ratio of citations to the home's small size is concerning. Ask the operators directly about inspection findings and what specific steps they've taken.
Website is not functional or trustworthy
The facility's website contains spam content and non-English text unrelated to senior care. This raises questions about operational attention to detail. Get all information by calling or visiting in person.
Brand-new license with no track record
Licensed in January 2024, this is one of the newest board and care homes in the area. There's minimal history to evaluate. Ask about the operators' experience at their other locations.
