FYI Safety Score

0.0 Poor

45 state citations (19 serious, 26 minor) and 24 verified complaints since 2021 across 89 inspections. The most repeated serious violations involve eviction procedures: inspectors cited the facility twice in 2023 for failing to provide residents the required 30-day written discharge notice (CCR 87224(a)) and for omitting residents' rights to file complaints with the licensing agency from eviction paperwork (CCR 87224(c)), with the facility required to submit corrective training documentation both times. A verified complaint in October 2022 found that overnight facility calls were not being answered by the medtech on duty during the NOC shift; the facility administrator confirmed the responsible staff member no longer works at the facility. A second complaint substantiated in October 2023 also involved resident eviction procedures. A 2023 incident in which a memory care resident left the secured unit floor was investigated and found unsubstantiated, as the resident did not exit the facility grounds. Multiple complaint investigations in 2025 covering staff conduct, grooming assistance, water access, health precautions, and outdoor maintenance all resulted in unsubstantiated findings.

  • Exceptionally affordable

    Priced well below the California average for assisted living, making it one of the most accessible large communities in the state for families on a tight budget.

  • Large community scale

    At 236 beds, the community has the size to support a range of services, activities, and staffing coverage around the clock.

  • Alarming safety record

    Carries a 0.0 FYI Safety Score, the lowest possible rating. This reflects a deeply concerning inspection history with California's licensing authority. Families must review the full inspection record before considering this community and should ask management directly about what corrective actions have been taken.

  • Budget pricing may reflect trade-offs

    Pricing this far below state averages in a large facility often correlates with differences in staffing ratios, amenities, or building condition. An in-person visit is essential.
