Inspection Report Summary for Vista Gardens Memory Care
VISTA GARDENS MEMORY CARE, a 99‑bed senior residential facility in Vista, consistently demonstrated adherence to California’s licensing requirements across three distinct visits. On 18 June 2024, a COMP II interview confirmed that Administrator Jeff Gonzalez had verified his identification, signed the required LIC 809 form, and understood the relevant Health and Safety Codes and Title 22 regulations. The same day, the office visit confirmed the facility’s capacity and census, with 84 residents present, and documented the administrator’s readiness for the upcoming pre‑licensing inspection.
The pre‑licensing/CHOW visit on 11 July 2024, conducted by Licensing Program Analyst Venus Mixson, found the building, physical plant, and resident units to meet all safety and care standards. Medications, cleaning supplies, sharp objects, and potentially hazardous materials were securely locked out of resident reach; fire safety equipment, including extinguishers, smoke and carbon‑monoxide detectors, and emergency lighting, were fully operational. Resident rooms and bathrooms were adequately furnished, clean, and equipped with appropriate temperature controls. Required posters (“If You See Something, Say Something,” “Personal Rights,” PUB 475) and the administrator’s certification were prominently displayed. The analysis also noted proper storage of staff and resident records, and confirmed that no firearms or ammunition were present on the premises.
The required annual inspection on 18 July 2025, again by Venus Mixson, mirrored the findings of the earlier visit. With a census of 66 residents, the facility remained well within its licensed capacity. All exits and passageways were unobstructed, and the building’s safety systems—smoke detectors, carbon‑monoxide alarms, and fire extinguishers—remained functional. Residents’ bedrooms and bathrooms continued to meet Title 22 furnishings and hygiene requirements. The report lists no deficiencies, indicating full compliance at the time of inspection. Across all three visits, the facility consistently maintained a safe, well‑managed environment with no reported safety hazards or regulatory gaps, underscoring a pattern of proactive adherence to state licensing standards.
