Mountain View Healthcare Center ratings and staffing

Mountain View Healthcare Center is located at 2530 Solace Place in Mountain View, Santa Clara County. It is a for-profit facility operated by Cirby Holdings LLC, part of Spyglass Healthcare, with 129 certified beds and an average of 127.4 residents a day. It accepts Medicare and Medicaid.

CMS rates every certified nursing home in three separate categories, and the overall star is a blend of them:

  • Health inspections, based on what state surveyors observe in person during unannounced visits. Weight this one most heavily, because it does not rely on data the facility reports about itself.
  • Staffing, drawn from payroll-based records of how much nursing time each resident actually receives.
  • Quality measures, built largely from data the facility submits. Read a high score here with more caution than the other two.

For Mountain View Healthcare Center, those scores are: health inspections 2 of 5, staffing 3 of 5, quality measures 5 of 5.

Staffing. Mountain View Healthcare Center reports 4.08 total nursing hours per resident per day, of which 0.73 are registered nurse hours. Over the reporting year, 37.7% of the nursing staff left. Registered nurses supervise aides, catch medication errors before they reach a resident, and notice when a person's condition is changing. Staffing is the single number that most reliably predicts whether a facility catches a problem early or lets it become a crisis.

How this home compares in the public record

CMS publishes each home's star rating and its payroll-based staffing hours, and it publishes the federal fines it has imposed. The county and California figures beside each number are the averages across those same published records.

CMS overall rating 3 of 5 Santa Clara County average 3.52 of 5 across 50 rated homes. California average 3.16 of 5 across 1,154 rated homes
Nursing hours per resident per day 4.08 Santa Clara County average 4.45. California average 4.52
Federal fines $54,912 Santa Clara County average $13,032 per home. California average $24,666 per home

These figures are taken from public CMS Care Compare records as of August 2026 (the August 2026 release) and public CDPH records as of June 2024 (the state enforcement dataset of August 27, 2024). They are reported as published and are not a recommendation, endorsement or assessment of any facility by this firm. How these figures were assembled.

Homes in Santa Clara County with a higher CMS overall rating

CMS rates each of these homes above Mountain View Healthcare Center on the overall star rating it publishes. The rating is one measure of a facility's record, and each page below carries that home's own inspection findings, staffing hours and citation history.

California state citations

California inspects and cites nursing homes separately from the federal government. The Department of Public Health issues three classes of citation. A class AA citation is a class A violation that the Department of Public Health determined was a direct proximate cause of a resident's death. A class A citation is a violation the Department determined presented an imminent danger of death or serious harm to residents, or a substantial probability that death or serious physical harm would result. A class B citation is a violation the Department determined had a direct or immediate relationship to residents' health, safety or security, other than a class AA or A violation.

State records show 10 citations against Mountain View Healthcare Center between April 6, 2000 and September 8, 2021: 1 class A and 9 class B, with $31,900 in assessed penalties.

  • September 8, 2021, class A, Patient Care. $20,000 penalty.
  • February 19, 2020, class B, Patient Rights. $1,300 penalty. Appealed.
  • January 6, 2020, class B, Medication. $2,000 penalty. Appealed.
  • April 11, 2017, class B, Patient Care. $2,000 penalty.

  • January 16, 2001, class B, Patient Care. $900 penalty.
  • April 6, 2000, class B, Administration. $1,000 penalty. Appealed.

Across Santa Clara County's 50 certified facilities, the average is about 12.5 state citations per facility. Mountain View Healthcare Center's 10 is close to that average.

A citation marked "Appealed." is under appeal, so it is not a final determination. A citation records a determination by state surveyors. A citation does not by itself establish that any particular resident was injured or that the facility is liable to anyone.

What to do if you are worried about care at this facility

You will usually notice something is wrong before anyone official does, and you do not need proof before you act. If you are concerned about care at Mountain View Healthcare Center, you can take these steps:

Write down what you see. Note dates, times, and specific concerns, and photograph anything relevant. A clear, contemporaneous record matters if an investigation follows.

File a complaint with the California Department of Public Health. CDPH licenses and inspects skilled nursing facilities and investigates complaints, and a serious complaint can trigger an on-site inspection. You can file online through CDPH's Cal Health Find system, which routes your complaint to the Santa Clara County licensing district office.

Contact the Long-Term Care Ombudsman. The ombudsman is a free advocate who will visit your loved one, look into your concerns, and press the facility on their behalf. Santa Clara County's ombudsman program can be reached at (408) 944-0567. This is often the fastest first step when the issue is care quality rather than an emergency.

Are There Lawsuits Against Mountain View Healthcare Center?

This page reports federal and state inspection, complaint and enforcement records for Mountain View Healthcare Center. Those records are separate from civil lawsuits: a government citation is not a lawsuit, and a facility can be sued without ever being cited. This site does not track civil court filings. Civil cases against California skilled nursing facilities are usually filed in the Superior Court of the county where the facility is located; records for Santa Clara County are searchable through the Santa Clara County Superior Court's online case records. If your family member was injured at Mountain View Healthcare Center, the records that matter most are usually the resident's own: nursing notes, care plans, fall-risk assessments, wound records, medication administration records, physician orders and incident reports.

Under California's Elder Abuse Act (Welfare and Institutions Code sections 15600 to 15675), a family that proves, by clear and convincing evidence, that neglect was committed with recklessness, oppression, fraud or malice can recover remedies beyond an ordinary injury claim, including attorney's fees (section 15657).

If your loved one was harmed at Mountain View Healthcare Center, talk to our Santa Clara County nursing home abuse lawyers. We handle cases in Mountain View and across California.
