Marbella Oroville has recorded 24 state citations (10 serious, 14 minor) and 18 verified complaints since 2021 across 70 inspections. The most serious confirmed findings involve 2 separate memory care elopements: in November 2023, a resident was found a substantial distance from the facility by a community member after staff were unaware the resident had left the memory care unit; in September 2024, a second memory care resident was found wandering near Oroville Hospital and Highway 162 before a community member called 911, with staff unaware until the hospital notified them. A physical plant citation in August 2025 confirmed the facility's internet had been non-functional for over 2 weeks, carpets in memory care and common area were stained and dirty, and the memory care garden fence had broken boards and leaning sections in multiple areas. Multiple complaints about staffing levels, resident falls, medication administration, showering assistance, and timely medical care were investigated and found unsubstantiated.
