AI summary

Welcome Home - Castro Valley has no Type A findings across more than five years of operation, with only a single administrative citation on record and nothing recent to flag.

Read Full Summary
  • Track record — Across four inspections since licensing in 2021, the community has accumulated just one Type B citation, an administrative-level finding rather than one tied to resident safety or care.
  • Recent 3 years — The three most recent inspections, spanning 2024 through early 2026, show no Type A or Type B citations and no substantiated allegations, indicating a clean recent stretch.
  • Operating tenure — With 5.3 years of licensed operation and four inspection cycles completed, there is a reasonable track record to evaluate, though as a 10-bed home it naturally sees fewer inspection touchpoints than larger communities.
