Inspection Report Summary for North Lake Villas

North Lake Villas Inc., a 740‑type group home located at 2851 N. Lake Ave, Altadena, CA, has undergone three unannounced required‑year inspections and one complaint investigation during the past four years. The facility’s capacity is 30 residents, with a census that fluctuated from 23 in 2021 to 27 in early 2023 and 25 in August 2024. Each inspection, conducted by licensing program analysts, documented consistent compliance with state health and safety standards, infection‑control protocols, and fire‑safety requirements.

The July 29 2021 inspection found no deficiencies. The facility maintained a robust infection‑control program, with approved mitigation plans, required signage, multiple screening stations, and ample personal‑protective‑equipment supplies. Fire safety measures were fully operational: hard‑wired smoke and carbon‑monoxide detectors, sprinkler coverage, and properly inspected extinguishers. Resident rooms were well furnished, with grab bars, controlled hot‑water temperatures, and locked medication and sharp‑object storage. Clean linen and first‑aid kits were readily available, and the laundry and kitchen areas were properly secured and stocked.

The January 14 2023 and August 18 2024 inspections echoed these findings. Staff and residents’ records were up‑to‑date, and all safety equipment—including fire extinguishers inspected in 2023 and 2024—remained in good condition. The facility continued to operate a fire‑clearance plan for 30 non‑ambulatory residents, with a hospice waiver for ten residents. No health or safety issues were observed, and the staff’s criminal‑record clearances were current. The August 2024 visit also noted a recent disaster drill and verified that all required postings remained current.

The single complaint investigation, filed on June 7 2022, was determined to be unsubstantiated. No evidence was found to support the allegations, and the report closed without corrective action. Overall, North Lake Villas Inc. demonstrates sustained compliance across infection control, fire safety, resident care, and regulatory documentation, with no significant violations identified in the documented inspections.
