99 beds • Est. 1991 (35 years)


FYI Safety Score

9.5 Excellent

Casa El Cajon has 5 minor state citations and 1 verified complaint since 2020 across 29 inspections. The verified finding, from a January 2023 investigation, was a substantiated unlawful eviction. No serious citations appear in the inspection record. State investigators also reviewed complaints covering alleged theft of resident funds, staff retaliation, threatened evictions, drug use on premises, temperature and comfort conditions, denial of access to day programs and medical appointments, elevator disrepair, and facility cleanliness. Each was investigated and found to lack sufficient supporting evidence, resulting in unsubstantiated or unfounded determinations. The most recent investigations, completed in early 2026, examined complaints about elevator maintenance, wrongful service fees, environmental comfort, and the conduct of individual staff members toward residents, all of which were similarly found unsubstantiated.
