Inspection Report Summary for Monte Vista Grove Homes

Monte Vista Grove Homes (facility 191222411) has undergone a series of inspections and administrative reviews between October 2021 and February 2023 as it transitioned from a Skill Nursing Facility (SNIF) to a Residential Care for the Elderly (RCFE) while maintaining its Continuing Care Retirement Center (CCRC) operations. The facility’s capacity increased from an initial 26 to 66 residents, with 26 non‑ambulatory and 40 bedridden beds, and it has been granted approval to retain up to fifteen hospice residents. Each review—whether an unannounced one‑year inspection, a case‑management visit, or an office meeting—focused on ensuring that the facility met Title 22 regulations, maintained proper infection‑control protocols, and continued to provide safe, high‑quality care.

Across all visits, inspectors noted comprehensive compliance with fire safety requirements: sprinkler systems, smoke detectors, and fire extinguishers were fully operational and appropriately maintained. Infection‑control measures—screening logs, hand‑washing signage, PPE supplies, and visitor protocols—were in place and functional. Food and medication management met regulatory standards, with adequate perishable and non‑perishable supplies, temperature logs, and secure medication storage. Staff files were complete and reflected required background checks. The facility also addressed hospice waiver requirements, resubmitting applications for up to fifteen ill residents after clarifying regulatory expectations. No deficiencies were documented in any of the evaluations, indicating consistent adherence to safety and care standards.

The recurring pattern of diligent compliance, coupled with proactive administrative actions—such as the conversion to RCFE, capacity adjustments, and the submission of a mitigation plan—underscores Monte Vista Grove Homes’ commitment to meeting regulatory demands while expanding its services. Regular, unannounced inspections have reinforced accountability and provided the facility with opportunities to confirm its processes, ensuring continued safety, quality of care, and preparedness for future regulatory changes.
