Inspection Report Summary for Canyon Guest Home

Canyon Guest Home, a 740‑type residential care facility in San Diego, maintains a capacity of six non‑ambulatory residents, five of whom are hospice patients. Over the past four years, the California Department of Social Services has conducted a series of evaluations that consistently show the home operates in accordance with Title 22 regulations. The 2021 and 2022 pre‑licensing visits confirmed the facility’s cleanliness, functional plumbing, proper medication storage, and adequate fire and safety equipment. Both visits documented that the resident census, furnishings, and daily‑living supplies met required standards, and no deficiencies were cited.

The required annual inspections in January 2024 and February 2025 followed the same pattern. Unannounced, the Licensing Program Analysts found the home well‑maintained, with no toxic substances accessible to residents, secure medication storage, functioning carbon monoxide detectors, and adequate emergency supplies. Staff interviews and record reviews revealed compliance with staffing qualifications, record‑keeping, and client‑rights policies. Water temperatures in all bathrooms remained within acceptable limits, and the facility consistently held sufficient perishable and non‑perishable food supplies. Each inspection concluded with no regulatory concerns and no citations issued.

In mid‑January 2024, a complaint alleging insufficient toileting assistance for a hospice resident and the resident’s prolonged exposure to soiled clothing was investigated. The evaluator met with the house manager, reviewed relevant client records, and interviewed the reporting party. Findings determined that the resident’s care needs were indeed documented and that staff provided assistance consistent with the resident’s documented capabilities. The complaint was therefore deemed unsubstantiated, and no corrective action was required.

Across all evaluations, a clear pattern emerges: Canyon Guest Home adheres to safety, care, and documentation standards, maintains a clean and secure environment, and demonstrates responsiveness to client needs. The absence of cited deficiencies or substantiated complaints underscores the facility’s ongoing compliance and commitment to quality residential care.
