CMS gives Plaza Healthcare Center an overall rating of 1 of 5 stars. The last standard survey was on 16 Jun 2025. The latest survey cycle has 31 health citations. The median for nursing homes in California is 14. CMS lists 1 fine of $2,470 for this home in its penalties file.

Facilities may see a change in their overall rating for a number of reasons. Since the overall rating is based on three individual domains, a change in any one of the domains can affect the overall rating. Any new data for a nursing home could potentially change a star rating domain.
