Pasa Alta West

1773 N. Fair Oaks

Pasadena, CA 91103

6 beds • Est. 1994 (32 years)


FYI Safety Score

8.1 Good

5 state citations (3 serious, 2 minor) and 0 verified complaints across 6 inspections since 2022. The 1 complaint filed alleged that a staff member was having inappropriate conversations that made residents uncomfortable; all 4 staff interviewed denied it, all 6 residents could not corroborate it, and the 1 resident who initially raised the concern later stated they had no issues and had never felt uncomfortable, leaving the allegation unsubstantiated. The facility serves adults 60 and older with developmental disabilities and is vendorized by the Frank D. Lanterman Regional Center. The most recent inspection in January 2026 found staff adhering to infection control requirements, adequate PPE supplies, and an active Infection Control Plan in place. Notably, during the February 2025 inspection the facility was temporarily housing 2 additional residents displaced by the Eaton fire from a sister facility, bringing census to 8 against a licensed capacity of 6; the inspector noted the over-capacity situation and directed the administrator to notify the fire department.
