Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
Most inspections at Almond Grove Assisted Living Facility found no deficiencies, with several complaint investigations unsubstantiated. However, some reports cited deficiencies related primarily to resident supervision and medication management, including a substantiated medication error posing an immediate health risk in the most recent report dated October 6, 2025. Earlier issues involved failures to properly supervise a resident who left the facility unattended, resulting in immediate civil penalties, and infection control lapses during a COVID-19 case in April 2023.

Several complaint investigations found no violations, indicating that many allegations were unsubstantiated.
