7 state citations and 5 verified complaints since 2021 across 12 inspections. The most serious findings involve a resident's financial exploitation: a former staff member used a resident's ATM card to withdraw money, which was confirmed by investigators and resulted in a substantiated complaint. Inspectors also substantiated a complaint that the facility used portable door locks and wheelchairs to prevent memory care residents from freely moving through the facility, though staff reported the wheelchair practice had already stopped by the time of the visit. A staff member was found not wearing a required mask during the COVID infection control period, resulting in a cited deficiency. An additional cited deficiency involved the facility failing to notify a resident's authorized representative of a rate increase. A complaint alleging physical restraint of residents was investigated and found unsubstantiated. Annual inspections from 2022 through 2025 generally found the facility clean and well-organized, with medications, knives, and cleaning supplies properly secured throughout.
Anaverdes Villa is a 6-bed care home in Palmdale's Anaverde Hills community, a quiet residential neighborhood in the western part of the city. Run by administrators with 20 years of healthcare experience, the facility offers spacious rooms with mountain views and cares for residents across a wide range of needs — from ambulatory to bedridden, including Alzheimer's, dementia, and hospice.
Caregivers have minimum 3 years of experience with background checks and CPR certification.
Handles a wide spectrum of care needs
Accepts ambulatory, non-ambulatory, and bedridden residents, plus Alzheimer's, dementia, and hospice. For a 6-bed home, this range means your loved one likely won't need to move if their condition progresses — a significant advantage.
Staff quality standards above the minimum
Requires caregivers to have at least 3 years of experience, plus health screening, criminal background clearance, and CPR/First Aid certification. Not every small home sets and enforces these hiring standards.
Physician-prescribed modified diets
Serves home-cooked meals with special meal plans customized for medical conditions as prescribed by the resident's physician. This goes beyond standard nutrition — it's medically informed meal planning.
Consistently positive family reviews
Google reviews describe dramatic improvements in resident well-being after moving in, with specific praise for owner Erwin and staff Desiree. Multiple families mention finding this home after negative experiences elsewhere.
Palmdale is far from central LA
Located in the Antelope Valley, roughly 60 miles north of downtown LA. This is a significant distance for regular family visits from most parts of the metro area. Proximity matters most for the people who will visit most often.
Extended care services involve variable pricing
Multiple care plan levels are available, from minimal assistance to extensive care. Ask for a clear breakdown of what's included in the base rate versus what triggers additional charges as needs increase.
