Villa Santa Barbara has recorded 5 serious state citations and 2 verified complaints across 14 inspections since 2022, when the facility underwent a change of ownership. The most serious substantiated finding involved an October 2024 incident in which a resident's call for assistance went unanswered for hours; the resident fell and sustained a facial laceration, hematoma, and wrist fracture. The CCLD Investigations Branch investigated and an informal compliance conference with facility leadership was held in October 2025. A separate September 2023 complaint was also substantiated: an LPA observed a resident's call pendant go unanswered for more than 21 minutes during a site visit. A December 2023 investigation found no responsible party or power of attorney documentation on file for a resident. Additional complaints filed since 2022, including allegations involving incontinence care, facility odors, staff conduct, and mold, were each found unsubstantiated.
