Introducing the FYI Safety Score — every facility rated on state inspection data

Argonaut Care Home, Inc.

860 Argonaut Dr.

Jackson, CA 95642

6 beds • Est. 2023 (2 years)


FYI Safety Score

2.7 Poor

28 state citations (13 serious, 15 minor) and 2 verified complaints since 2022 across 16 inspections. The most serious substantiated complaint, investigated in September 2025, found that a resident with dementia left the facility unsupervised after staff failed to activate the front door alarm, which administrators acknowledged was old and sometimes ignored. The resident sustained fractures to the cervical spine, nasal bone, nasal septum, and orbital roof along with facial bruising, was hospitalized, and died on May 8, 2025; the investigation concluded that inadequate supervision and security directly contributed to the death. During the 2023 pre-licensing period following a change of ownership, inspectors documented serious and minor violations including personnel requirements and medical care deficiencies that required 4 correction visits to clear. A 2024 annual inspection found a drain cleaner stored within reach of residents. As of the March 2026 visit, the facility was operating under a different administrator than in prior years.
