Inspection Report Summary for Splendor Valley
The California Department of Social Services’ Community Care Licensing Division conducted annual, unannounced inspections of Splendor Valley, LLC—a 740 type home in Escondido, CA with a six‑resident capacity—on three occasions: January 12, 2023; January 16, 2024; and December 13, 2024. Each visit was led by a Licensing Program Analyst and focused on the facility’s compliance with Title 22 regulations. The 2023 inspection, performed by Venus Mixson, emphasized infection‑control practices. She noted sufficient hand‑washing supplies, adequate cleaning provisions, proper use of face coverings, and a designated infection‑control lead who tracked COVID‑19 cases and maintained PPE and cleaning supplies. No COVID‑19 cases were present, and all residents and staff were fully vaccinated and boosted.
The 2024 inspections expanded the scope to include a full review of physical plant conditions, food service, medication management, staff credentials, and documentation. Venus Mixson’s January visit observed clean and well‑equipped bedrooms and bathrooms, compliant hot‑water temperatures, functional smoke detectors, carbon monoxide alarms, and fire extinguishers. Staffing was adequate, with three employees present during the Jan 16 inspection, all engaging residents during meals and medication rounds. Records—resident files, incident reports, and staff documentation—were reviewed and found in order, with no Title 22 or Division 6 violations cited. In December, Kathleen Banrasavong conducted a similar unannounced visit, confirming the continued maintenance of a one‑week non‑perishable food supply, proper medication storage in locked cabinets, and up‑to‑date employee certifications. Fire safety remained compliant, with dual smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and a fully charged fire extinguisher. No deficiencies were identified across all inspections.
Across the three reports, a clear pattern emerges: Splendor Valley, LLC consistently meets regulatory requirements for infection control, environmental safety, staffing, documentation, and medication management. The facility maintains a clean, safe environment, adheres to Title 22 standards, and demonstrates proactive oversight by its administrator, Mark Lu, and his wife, Marisa L. The absence of cited violations in each inspection indicates sustained compliance and effective ongoing management of resident care and facility operations.

Frequently Asked Questions
Several government programs offer financial assistance for senior housing in various countries, focusing on the United States for a broad overview:
- Medicaid: Medicaid is a state and federally funded program that can cover the costs of nursing home care for those who meet eligibility criteria, including income and asset limits. Some states also offer Medicaid waivers that help pay for home and community-based services to prevent or delay nursing home placement.
- Medicare: Medicare, primarily a health insurance program for people aged 65 and over, does not cover long-term housing costs. However, it can cover short-term stays in a skilled nursing facility under specific conditions following a hospital stay.
- Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program: This program provides housing for low-income seniors. It offers rental assistance and access to supportive services, such as cleaning, cooking, and transportation.
- Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Properties: While not a direct subsidy, LIHTC encourages developers to create affordable housing. Seniors with low incomes can find reduced-rent apartments through this program.
- State and Local Programs: Many states, counties, and cities offer their own programs to assist seniors with housing costs. These can include property tax relief programs, rental assistance programs, and programs that offer affordable senior housing options.
- Veterans Affairs (VA): The VA offers several programs for veterans, including the Aid and Attendance benefit, which provides monthly payments to veterans who require the aid of another person, or are housebound, to help cover the cost of care in homes, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.
- Social Security: While Social Security primarily provides retirement income, for many seniors, these benefits are a crucial part of their budget, including housing costs.
Before recommending homes, we conduct a thorough evaluation on crucial factors that define a senior home such as the quality of care they provide, the reputation of the organization, and a comprehensive review of community testimonials as well.
