FYI Safety Score

8.0 Good

MorningStar Assisted Living of West San Jose has 4 state citations (2 serious, 2 minor) and 1 verified complaint since 2023 across 24 inspections. The facility opened in late 2023 and operates a secured memory care unit within its 149-bed building. Among the most significant incidents in the inspection record: in November 2025, a surveillance alert led staff to discover 2 memory care residents in a sexual encounter; both were separated and assessed without injury. In a separate investigation concluded in February 2026, a staff member acknowledged pulling a combative memory care resident with excessive force, causing a fall, attributing the incident to the resident's resistance to care and a second staff member pulling simultaneously. A July 2025 complaint alleged the facility failed to arrange urgent care transportation for a resident; the facility's policy requires 72-hour advance notice for its vehicles, and staff indicated they offered to arrange and cover the cost of alternate transportation.
