Gentle Caring Home

Mission Viejo, CA 92691

6 beds • Est. 2020 (5 years)


FYI Safety Score

7.6 Fair

Gentle Caring Home has 8 state citations (2 serious, 6 minor) and 0 verified complaints since 2021 across 5 inspections. The most significant finding came from the August 2022 annual inspection and a follow-up visit the next day: inspectors found a caregiver working directly with residents, including supervising a resident during dinner, without having completed required background clearance and fingerprinting. The administrator was not on-site when the follow-up occurred. A 2021 inspection also noted an expired administrator certificate. The most recent inspection in July 2025 found 3 residents in care with bedrooms and bathrooms appearing clean and sanitary, grab bars and slip mats in place, and no deficiencies noted in the available inspection narrative. No complaints have ever been filed against this facility.
