FYI Safety Score

1.0 Severe

Since 2022, state inspectors have cited Starlight Care Home 56 times (18 serious, 38 minor) and confirmed 8 complaints across 10 inspections. In 2022, inspectors confirmed a cockroach infestation that staff said had been going on for months, finding live cockroaches throughout the home and food in the kitchen cabinets with packaging that had been damaged by cockroaches. Over subsequent inspections, inspectors repeatedly cited the home for missing and disorganized staff and resident records, medication mismanagement involving residents with dementia, and ongoing physical plant conditions including cleanliness, repair, and safety. The home had no documented staff training for 2023 through 2025. During a 2025 inspection, hazardous cleaning products and sleep aids were found within reach of a resident whose doctor had restricted their access to those items. That same year, the home was fined for deficiencies that weren't corrected after an inspection, and state officials called the operator in for a formal non-compliance conference to address the accumulation of citations since 2022. Follow-up visits found that live-in staff had been sleeping in the garage and in a resident room.

Why we like it

Starlight Care Home is a 6-bed residential care facility in West Covina that has been licensed since 2010, giving it 15 years of operating history. The facility's website primarily promotes a home health agency rather than the residential care home itself, which makes it difficult to evaluate the residential care experience from online information alone.

An in-person visit is essential here.

  • 15 years of continuous licensing

    Operating since 2010, Starlight Care Home has one of the longer track records among small care homes in the area. Longevity alone doesn't guarantee quality, but it does mean the facility has survived ongoing state oversight for over a decade.

  • Connected to a home health agency

    The operator also runs Starlight Home Health Services, which provides skilled nursing, wound care, IV administration, and therapy services. This could mean smoother coordination if your loved one needs medical care alongside residential support.

  • Serious safety concerns

    18 serious and 38 minor citations across 10 state inspections, with 8 verified complaints. Read the state's full inspection reports and press on what's been fixed before deciding.

  • Website doesn't describe the residential care home

    The facility's online presence focuses almost entirely on the home health agency, not the 6-bed care home. There's very little information available about the actual living environment, daily routines, or caregiving approach. You'll need to visit and ask detailed questions in person.

  • West Covina location may be inconvenient

    Located in the eastern San Gabriel Valley, West Covina is a significant drive from central and west LA. Consider travel time for regular family visits.
