Citus Heights, CA 95610

78 beds • Est. 2024 (1 years)Accepts Medi-Cal (ALW)


FYI Safety Score

4.7 Poor

7 state citations (3 serious, 4 minor) and 5 verified complaints since 2024 across 30 inspections. The most serious recent finding involves an allegation that a staff member physically punched a resident in the back of the head in September 2025; inspectors reviewed statements from 5 staff witnesses and found varying accounts of the incident. A February 2026 investigation found medication cart security issues, with a med tech observed leaving the cart unsecured and loose medications found in resident wheelchairs, beds, and on the floor. A November 2024 fall incident involved a resident who waited on the floor for an extended period after activating their call pendant before staff responded. Additional investigations documented concerns about medication discontinuation for a resident at move-out, dietary accommodation for a vegetarian resident with documented weight loss, and ongoing skin and wound care for a resident with a recurring severe rash requiring multiple emergency room visits.


Why we like it

Families considering Oakwood Meadows should pay close attention to the facility's inspection history before scheduling a visit.

  • Mid-sized community

    At 78 beds, Oakwood Meadows is large enough to offer structured activities and dedicated staff, but small enough that residents aren't lost in the crowd.

  • Sacramento metro access

    Citrus Heights sits just northeast of Sacramento, keeping families, hospitals, and services within a short drive.

  • Suburban setting

    The community is in a residential neighborhood, offering a quieter environment compared to facilities on busy commercial corridors.

  • Concerning safety record

    A safety score of 4.7 indicates a significant history of inspection citations and complaints. Families should request and review the full inspection report.

  • Ask about corrective actions

    With a score this low, it's worth asking management directly what changes they've made in response to past citations.
