Inspection Report Summary for Holiday Springs of Escondido

The California Department of Social Services Community Care Licensing conducted a series of inspections at Pacifica Senior Living Escondido over 2021 and 2022. In the initial virtual visit in January 2021, the facility met basic fire, lock‑storage, and hygiene requirements but was found to be non‑compliant with Title 22 for water‑temperature control in resident bathrooms, as the measured temperature was 65‑68 °F rather than the required 105‑120 °F. The evaluator noted that each resident’s bedroom still lacked complete furnishings—chairs, nightstands, lamps, and sufficient linens— and issued a requirement that these items be provided before the facility could receive final approval. A follow‑up visit was scheduled to verify that these deficiencies had been corrected.

A series of unannounced case‑management visits followed. In October 2021, the evaluator received a self‑reported incident involving a resident’s unauthorized departure; the visit found no additional health or safety issues. Subsequent visits in November 2021 and February 2022 addressed an incident report and the death of the same resident (R1). Each visit, conducted by the same licensing analyst, confirmed that all staff had current criminal‑record clearances, residents appeared appropriate for the facility, and no deficiencies were observed. These reviews reaffirmed that the facility maintained adequate infection‑control practices—including a comprehensive COVID‑19 mitigation plan—during the required annual inspection in November 2021.

Across all encounters, a consistent pattern emerged: Pacifica Senior Living Escondido generally meets the statutory standards for resident safety, fire protection, and infection control. The only substantive concerns arose early in the year regarding water‑temperature compliance and incomplete resident accommodations, both of which were identified and required to be remedied before final approval. Subsequent visits—including those prompted by resident incidents—revealed no new deficiencies, indicating that the facility had addressed the initial issues and maintained compliance thereafter.
