Belmar Villa has accumulated 17 state citations (7 serious, 10 minor) and 14 verified complaints since 2021 across 64 inspections, with the most recent inspection on 2/20/2026. The most serious substantiated findings involve resident care and safety: in December 2023, an inspector confirmed a resident was being physically restrained in bed using full bed rails without a physician order, with a mattress pad wedged between the rails to prevent the resident from leaving the bed, resulting in a serious citation. A separate verified complaint that same month documented a resident's room with piled dirty laundry and a strong urine odor. In September 2023, a substantiated complaint found a resident lying on a bare plastic mattress with no bedding, wearing only 1 sock, with an undressed wound and no home health care plan on file, resulting in serious citations for failure to meet medical and hygiene needs. The facility has operated under the same administrator throughout the inspection record.
Belmar Villa is a 100-bed assisted living community in Fresno, located in California's Central Valley. The mid-sized community serves families in the greater Fresno area, one of the state's largest inland cities.
Fresno's lower cost of living compared to coastal California can make care more accessible for families on a budget.
