Inspection Report Summary for Cottages at Hemet

The California Department of Social Services, Community Care Licensing Division, conducted a series of evaluations of PACIFICA SENIOR LIVING POWAY (Facility Number 374604604) over a span of nearly three years. In the initial pre‑licensing visit on 02/24/2023, Administrator Cameron Azemikhah welcomed the Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) and demonstrated that the 72‑bed facility met all Title 22 and Health & Safety Code requirements. The site was clean, pathways unobstructed, and all resident rooms, hot‑water taps, and storage areas were compliant. The pre‑licensing inspection concluded with a pass, and the applicant received the requisite Component III training. The facility also passed the COMP II interview on 12/21/2022, confirming the administrator’s understanding of regulatory obligations.

During the required annual inspections in 03/13/2024 and 04/04/2025, the same facility consistently displayed safe environmental conditions. LPAs Juliana Barfield and Amy Rodgers noted that pathways remained clear, furnishings and linens met standards, and all safety devices—smoke alarms, carbon monoxide detectors, fire extinguishers, and first‑aid kits—were functional. Both inspections confirmed adequate food supplies, proper medication storage, and the absence of hazardous materials or firearms. In the 2024 inspection, one technical violation and one technical assistance point were recorded, but no critical or type‑A deficiencies emerged. By 2025, the census had risen to 49 residents, but all regulatory requirements continued to be satisfied, and the facility maintained its high safety and cleanliness standards.

Across the four reports, a clear pattern emerges: PACIFICA SENIOR LIVING POWAY consistently meets California’s residential care regulations. Administrator Cameron Azemikhah demonstrates continual compliance through routine inspections and the timely completion of required training. The facility’s physical plant, environmental controls, and administrative safeguards have not presented significant safety or compliance issues, and the annual inspections yielded only minimal, addressable technical concerns. This record indicates a stable, well‑managed environment that upholds resident safety, health, and rights in line with state licensing expectations.
