Introducing the FYI Safety Score — every facility rated on state inspection data

Citrus Place

7898 California Avenue

Riverside, CA 92504

140 beds • Est. 2020 (5 years)


FYI Safety Score

4.1 Poor

Citrus Place recorded 10 state citations (3 serious, 7 minor) and 8 verified complaints since 2021 across 26 inspections. The most recent verified findings, from late 2024, include a December incident in which staff deferred to a resident's power of attorney and delayed contacting emergency services following an injury; as the resident's swelling increased over several hours, staff eventually called medical personnel and the resident was transported to the hospital for evaluation. A November 2024 complaint investigation produced minor citations for ongoing ceiling leaks in a resident's room that posed a health and safety risk and for the premises not being maintained in good repair. State investigators also examined allegations of staff verbal abuse, resident neglect, inadequate food quality, air conditioning failures, and restricted community access; these allegations were not substantiated based on staff interviews, resident interviews, and records reviewed.


Why we like it

Citrus Place is a 140-bed assisted living community in Riverside, in the heart of the Inland Empire. With budget-friendly pricing, it offers an affordable option for families in the Riverside-San Bernardino metro area, though its safety record warrants careful attention.

  • Budget-friendly pricing

    Starting rates are well below the Southern California average, making this one of the more affordable large-community options in the Inland Empire.

  • Large community resources

    At 140 beds, the facility can support a range of activities, dining programs, and round-the-clock staffing.

  • Inland Empire location

    Riverside offers lower cost of living than coastal counties while maintaining access to major medical centers and family visiting from across the IE.

  • Poor safety record

    An FYI Safety Score of 4.1 indicates a pattern of inspection concerns. Families should review recent state inspection reports carefully before deciding.
