Valley Vista Residential Care Iii

1557 Galleon Way

San Luis Obispo, CA 93405

6 beds • Est. 2020 (6 years)


FYI Safety Score

2.4 Poor

25 state citations (11 serious, 14 minor) and 4 verified complaints since 2022 across 15 inspections. The most serious and most repeated violation is unsecured medications accessible to residents, cited across multiple visits: the December 2025 annual inspection found unlocked controlled substances, cleaning solutions, and a sharps container with exposed needles within reach of residents, most of whom cannot self-manage medications. A January 2026 complaint visit documented hydromorphone, lorazepam, and numerous other medications left unlocked and unattended in resident bedrooms. A May 2025 complaint was substantiated when the licensee admitted leaving 2 residents alone for 15 to 20 minutes while running an errand. A July 2024 complaint confirmed an uncleared individual without background clearance had been residing in the facility for 5 days. A serious citation was also issued for retaining a bedridden resident without the required fire clearance, with civil penalties accruing at $100 per day. A January 2026 informal conference was convened to address persistent non-compliance across both facilities operated by this licensee, and an April 2026 follow-up visit found medication recordkeeping requirements still not being maintained despite prior plans of correction.
