Overview of Golden Assisted Living

Facebook

With 24-hour staffing and four defined levels of medical support, Golden Assisted Living is a 128-bed assisted living and memory care community in Sylmar, California. The community offers assisted living, memory care, short-term rehabilitation, and respite care. Operated by Golden Living In Sylmar Inc under administrator Monique Lopez, the facility has been licensed in Los Angeles County as a Residential Care Facility for the Elderly since January 2019.

As a California RCFE, inspections are conducted not by CMS but by the Department of Social Services. The facility since 2021 has totaled 76 complaints, about five times California’s average of 14, with 76 complaint-triggered visits against a statewide norm of 13. Formal citations have run below the state average at 8 total compared to a California average of 10. No fines existed in May 2026, which was the latest inspection.

Amenities feature three chef-prepared meals every day, a greenhouse, a theater space, and an exercise and fitness area. Small pets are welcome. The Independent Living Plus program offers a care tier for residents with lighter support needs.

With a wide amenity in Sylmar, the community fits Los Angeles County older adults who seek assisted living or memory care in a larger community.
