Pacifica Senior Living Spring Valley
Pacifica Senior Living Spring Valley is a 72-bed memory care community at 8880 W Tropicana Ave in Las Vegas, Nevada, licensed as a Residential Facility for Groups by the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services since February 17, 2000. With 26 years of operational experience, the facility is a well-established member of the Pacifica Senior Living network. Currently, 56 of 72 beds are occupied, representing a 78% occupancy rate consistent with Nevada state averages, and the facility maintains an average daily census of 92 residents. The facility’s 26-year tenure distinguishes it from newer competitors and reflects substantial experience in regulatory navigation and care delivery continuity.
Pacifica Senior Living Spring Valley specializes in dementia care through its branded Amara Memory Support program, designed for residents with Alzheimer’s disease and other cognitive decline conditions. The community operates 24 hours daily, Monday through Sunday, and maintains 24-hour staffing with a doctor on staff providing medical oversight. Two rehabilitation services are confirmed: rehabilitation services and respite care. Four documented amenities include daily programs, an activity center, walking paths, and musical and creative arts programs. Pets are allowed. The facility accepts Medicare and offers short-term respite care placements.
Regulatory oversight falls to the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services, Bureau of Health Care Quality and Compliance. Pacifica Senior Living Spring Valley has received 16 inspections compared to a Nevada state average of 21. The most recent inspection on September 16, 2025, a complaint investigation, found no regulatory deficiencies. Three complaints and one incident were substantiated without deficient practice findings. Earlier inspections documented a pattern of deficiencies involving medication management, care plan documentation, food service sanitation, and staff training, including non-functional call bells and supervision gaps for residents at elopement risk. One substantiated complaint from an earlier period involved failure to update a care plan for a resident with high elopement risk, a serious compliance matter in memory care settings. Enforcement actions included an $800 monetary penalty in 2016 and immediate jeopardy related to air conditioning that was abated the same day. No recent fines or license actions appear in the available compliance record. The inspection history demonstrates improvement in recent years, with the most recent 2025 inspections showing no deficiencies.
The community is positioned 9.5 miles from downtown Las Vegas with access to hospitals, pharmacies, and services.
Pacifica Senior Living Spring Valley is suited for families seeking an established, long-tenured memory care program with medical oversight in Las Vegas, provided they ask directly about current call bell functionality and supervision protocols for residents at elopement risk, given earlier deficiency findings on these safety-critical systems.
