“Not on file” is not a no — approvals can be bed- or room-specific, so confirm current scope with the home on a tour. Where a number is shown it is the state’s own wording for how many residents the approval covers, not how many places are open today; where none is shown, the record simply does not state one.

Specific medical needs — insulin, oxygen, a catheter, an ostomy — aren’t in the state license record; ask the home directly. A feeding tube, tracheostomy, or advanced wound care usually needs skilled nursing →

Is Sparks' Residential Meadowbrook licensed?

Yes — Sparks' Residential Meadowbrook is a licensed residential care home for the elderly (RCFE) in Hanford (Kings County): California license #167209143, shown as licensed in the CDSS state record checked August 2, 2026, licensed for 6 residents. State records list 10 inspection and complaint documents since 2021; the most recent, a facility evaluation report dated June 11, 2026, appears in the inspection record on this page.

Can Sparks' Residential Meadowbrook care for dementia, hospice, bedridden, or non-ambulatory residents?

From the CDSS license record, checked August 2, 2026.

The CDSS license record checked August 2, 2026 lists Sparks' Residential Meadowbrook with clearances for wheelchair / non-ambulatory; it does not list dementia / memory care, hospice care, and bedridden. A clearance that is not on file is not a “no” — it may simply be unrecorded, so if your family needs one of these, ask the home directly and confirm its current scope on a tour.

California's public licensing record does not include Sparks' Residential Meadowbrook's monthly price, so we never show or estimate one for a specific home.

What the state has logged

California has logged 13 state visits for this home as of August 2, 2026. These are the home's own counts, straight from that record — shown beside the statewide median for small board-and-care homes (6 or fewer beds), computed across all 5,773 licensed homes of that size, because larger and longer-licensed homes naturally accumulate more visits and reports. They are facts, not a grade — a citation may be minor and since corrected, and an “unsubstantiated” complaint is not a finding of wrongdoing.
