Inspection Report Summary for Westmont of Chico

The facility’s most recent inspection on April 24, 2025, found no deficiencies, continuing a pattern of clean annual inspections in recent years. Earlier reports included a substantiated complaint in November 2022 related to allowing a symptomatic caregiver to work, which led to a COVID-19 outbreak and a $10,000 fine. Prior to that, in 2020, several serious deficiencies were cited involving inadequate supervision, unsafe medication administration, delayed medical care, and insufficient staffing, some of which contributed to resident harm and hospitalization. Many complaint investigations over time were unsubstantiated, indicating that most allegations were not supported by evidence. Overall, the facility appears to have improved since the more serious issues identified in 2020 and 2022, with recent inspections showing compliance and no new deficiencies.
