Almond Grove Assisted Living has 12 state citations (4 serious, 8 minor) and 3 verified complaints since 2022 across 35 inspections, with the most recent inspection on February 5, 2026. The 3 verified complaints reflect distinct care concerns across the facility's history: in early 2023, the facility failed to follow COVID-19 isolation protocols after a resident tested positive, neglecting to separate a roommate in their shared room as required; in June 2024, a resident with a stroke diagnosis whose physician had documented they could not leave unassisted was found by law enforcement 0.5 miles from the facility after staff observed the resident outside but did not intervene, and the resident was subsequently transferred to a hospital; and in December 2025, an investigation found that 7 of 8 staff hired between August and September 2025 had not completed required tuberculosis tests before starting work.
Almond Grove Assisted Living is a 78-bed assisted living community in Orangevale, a quiet Sacramento suburb. The community offers a budget-friendly option for families in the greater Sacramento area.
At 78 beds, it sits in a mid-sized range that can offer a more personal feel than the largest communities in the region.
Medi-Cal Waiver accepted
Almond Grove explicitly participates in California's Assisted Living Waiver Program, making it an option for Medi-Cal recipients — a meaningful distinction at this price point.
Medication management in base rate
The facility states medication management is built into basic rates as a deliberate policy, rather than billed as an add-on service.
Dietitian-designed menus
Meals are planned by registered dietitians with senior nutrition in mind. Alternative items are offered daily for residents who want something off the main menu.
40+ years of operation
The facility claims 40+ years of experience in senior care — one of the longer operating histories among Orangevale assisted living communities.
Safety score 5.4
The FYI Safety Score of 5.4 reflects the inspection and citation record on file with CCLD. Ask what specific steps have been taken in response to past findings.
No pets allowed
The amenity listing explicitly states no pets are permitted — a firm policy, not a case-by-case situation.
Part-time nurse on staff
The facility lists a part-time nurse rather than a full-time RN. Confirm nursing coverage hours and how medical escalations are handled after hours.
Room sizes flagged in reviews
Multiple independent reviewers describe rooms as small. If square footage matters, ask to see actual dimensions before signing.
Pricing is estimated, please contact the facility to confirm.
