Avocado Creek

Escondido, CA 92026

12 beds • Est. 2007 (18 years)


FYI Safety Score

8.4 Good

1 minor state citation and 0 verified complaints since 2021 across 5 inspections. The single citation, issued in September 2023, noted that CPR and First Aid certifications for 2 staff members had lapsed; this was identified during a case management visit and cited as a deficiency. 3 complaints were filed over the same period, all investigated and found unsubstantiated, including a December 2024 allegation that staff left a resident in soiled diapers for an extended period. In that investigation, staff reported the resident experienced memory lapses that led to repeated complaints immediately after care was provided, and interviews with other residents raised no additional concerns. Annual inspections in 2021, 2023, and 2024 found the physical environment, safety equipment, food storage, and staffing in compliance, with the 2021 visit noting no deficiencies observed.
