FYI Safety Score

7.9 Fair

1 minor state citation and 0 verified complaints across 3 inspections since 2022. No complaints have been filed at this facility. The single minor citation was issued during the inspection record but is not described in the provided narratives. Across all 3 annual inspections conducted between 2022 and March 2026 by the same licensing analyst, the facility consistently demonstrated proper medication storage in locked cabinets, secured knives and cleaning agents, functional smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, and appropriately furnished resident bedrooms with adequate lighting. Hot water temperatures were measured within range, and required postings were observed in the entry area during each visit. The same administrator, Chita Beltran, has been present across all inspections.


Why we like it

Porter Ranch Home #3 is a 6-bed residential care facility at 8300 Capps Avenue in Northridge, licensed since 1991. Part of a pair of homes (the sister location is at 8301 Capps Avenue), the operation is managed by a licensed RN administrator who specializes in healthcare management and elderly care.

The home provides 24-hour board and care with RN and LVN supervision, home-cooked meals planned by a licensed dietician, and a range of personal care and medical support services.

  • Excellent safety record

    The FYI Safety Score™ is 9.8 out of 10 (Excellent). Zero Type A citations and zero substantiated allegations across 34 years of operation. That's an exceptional track record.

  • 34 years of continuous operation

    Licensed since 1991, this is one of the longest-running small care homes in the area. Three and a half decades of sustained operation in a 6-bed home is extraordinary and speaks to deeply trusted care.

  • RN administrator with medical specialization

    The home is managed by a licensed RN who specializes in healthcare management and elderly care. Having a nurse-administrator means clinical oversight is built into the management, not just available on call.

  • Licensed dietician plans the meals

    Home-cooked meals planned by a licensed dietician, with diabetic, low-sodium, and low-fat options available. This is a level of nutritional oversight you'd expect in a much larger facility.

  • Website is extremely minimal

    The online presence is essentially a contact page with phone numbers and a basic services list. There are no photos, no detailed descriptions, and no information about the physical environment. You'll need to visit to evaluate the home.

  • Two homes side by side — understand which one you're visiting

    Porter Ranch Homes operates two facilities on Capps Avenue (8300 and 8301) with different license numbers. Make sure you're visiting and evaluating the specific home your loved one would live in, as staffing and environment may differ.
