Valley Vista Residential Care III

Valley Vista Residential Care III has accumulated a concerning pattern of violations over its six-year operating history, with 13 Type A citations (serious violations affecting resident safety or care) and 16 Type B citations (administrative or non-serious findings). The facility has also had four substantiated allegations from complaint investigations, with roughly 80% of investigated allegations being substantiated — an unusually high rate that suggests recurring issues with resident care or safety protocols. The recent record shows no improvement, with two Type A citations and four substantiated allegations occurring within the past three years, indicating ongoing compliance challenges. Given the small size of this six-bed facility, the volume of serious findings is particularly notable, as smaller homes typically accumulate fewer violations simply due to their limited scope of operations. Families should ask the facility specifically which categories of allegations were substantiated, what corrective actions were taken and verified by the state, and how they plan to prevent future violations in areas like medication management and staff training. The pattern of complaint investigations matching the number of routine inspections also suggests heightened regulatory attention to this facility's operations.
