Inspection Report Summary for Sierra Village

Sierra Village Assisted Living, Facility Number 547201807 in Visalia, California, underwent five required annual inspections between June 2021 and June 2024. The inspections consistently confirmed that the facility maintained a clean, well‑furnished environment with adequate food supplies, properly stocked and locked cleaning and medication storage, and well‑maintained fire and health‑safety equipment. The administrator’s office was consistently staffed and the facility’s mitigation plan and infection‑control protocols were observed to be in place.

In the 06/08/2021 visit, the licensing program analyst noted full compliance with COVID‑19 preventive measures and no deficiencies. The 05/27/2022 inspection, however, revealed a serious compliance lapse: a staff member was found without a required fingerprint‑based criminal‑record clearance, resulting in an immediate civil penalty of $500 and a citation under CCR 87355(e)(1). The analyst also required the facility to submit updated licensing documentation, including a current Administrator Certificate and other statutory forms. The 04/26/2023 visit again returned no deficiencies, though the analyst requested routine licensing paperwork that had been pending from the prior visit.

The most recent inspection on 06/21/2024 identified a food‑service equipment deficiency: the ice machine displayed black residue in the dispenser area, violating CCR 87555(b)(29). This single defect triggered a formal citation and a plan of correction. Aside from this equipment issue, the site continued to demonstrate compliance with resident‑room standards, CPR certification, and medication safety protocols. Repeatedly, the analyst requested updated copies of licensure and administrative documents, underscoring the facility’s ongoing need to keep regulatory paperwork current.

Overall, Sierra Village Assisted Living has maintained high standards of resident care and facility safety, with the exception of two notable compliance incidents: a criminal‑record clearance lapse in 2022 and a food‑service equipment defect in 2024. The facility’s responsiveness to required documentation and corrective actions suggests an ongoing commitment to meeting California’s regulatory expectations while providing a safe, well‑managed environment for its residents.
