Inspection History
Inspection Report Summary for Heatherwood Memory Care
Heatherwood Memory Care Facility (F# 079201273) has undergone a series of regulatory visits that demonstrate a consistent pattern of compliance and proactive management. In early 2023, the facility’s administrator, Ritchie Gonzales, completed a Component II interview confirming knowledge of California Title 22 regulations, including admission policies, staffing, and emergency procedures. The inspection noted no deficiencies and acknowledged the facility’s readiness for licensing, with a census of 23 residents.
A change of ownership in June 2023 triggered a pre‑licensing inspection. Licensing Program Analysts (LPAs) toured the entire facility, reviewing physical accommodations, fire safety, and operational readiness. Again, no issues were cited; the building’s fire clearance covered 32 non‑ambulatory residents and a hospice waiver for ten residents. A subsequent Component III presentation reinforced the facility’s understanding of regulatory requirements, with the assistant administrator signing the report in the administrator’s absence.
Nearly a year later, in July 2024, an unannounced annual inspection confirmed that fire safety, temperature controls, water temperatures, and medication storage met or exceeded standards. The LPA requested updated administrative and personnel documentation but found no citations. The same pattern persisted in May 2025, where an unannounced inspection again revealed full compliance: adequate food supplies, operational smoke and CO detectors, recent fire extinguisher service, and proper staff training. No deficiencies were issued in any of the visits.
Across these reports, the facility consistently maintained safe environmental conditions, adequate staffing, and proper documentation. The only notable administrative change was the ownership transition, which was smoothly managed with no lapses in compliance. Heatherwood Memory Care’s track record of meeting licensing standards and proactively addressing documentation requirements suggests a stable, well‑managed facility that prioritizes resident safety and regulatory adherence.
