Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Tihesha Smith made a case management visit to the facility to discuss current circumstances regarding the facility licensure.

On 10/24/2025, the Department received a notification that Yolanda Villanueva, owner and licensee of Tycoon Residential Care, facility number 197606869, passed away on October 22, 2025. The information was provided by the licensee’s sister Mayetta Cesicar, who informed the Department that the family wished to continue operating the facility and that she intended to assume responsibility for its management. On 11/03/2025, a meeting was held at the Woodland Hills South Regional Office with both the spouse and sister of the licensee.

They were informed of the procedures for continuing facility operations under emergency circumstances, as well as the required timeframe for submitting a new application. The family was also advised of the requirements outlined in §1569.193—Death of licensee; continued operation of facility; designated responsible party; conditions; and procedures.
§1569.193 (a) (2) states in part. (2) The designee files an application for licensure pursuant to Section 1569.15 within 20 working days of the date of death, shows evidence satisfactory to the department that he or she has the ability to operate the facility, and provides evidence of the licensee's death.

FACILITY EVALUATION REPORT California law requires a public report of each licensing visit/inspection. This report is a record for the facility and the licensing agency. This report is available for public review; therefore, care is taken not to disclose personal or confidential information. Inquiries concerning the location, maintenance, and contents of these reports may be directed to the Licensing Program Analyst or Regional Office whose address and telephone number are listed on the front of this form.

DEFICIENCIES A deficiency is an instance of noncompliance with licensing requirements, including applicable statutes, regulations, interim licensing standards, operating standards, and written directives. Applicants/ licensees must be notified in writing of all licensing deficiencies. Deficiencies are listed on the left side of this form, and the applicable licensing requirement upon which the deficiency is identified. There are two types of deficiencies:
  • Type A deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, if not corrected, have a direct and immediate risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care.
  • Type B deficiencies are violations of licensing requirements that, without correction, could become a risk to the health, safety, or personal rights of persons in care, a recordkeeping violation that could impact the care of said persons and/or protection of their resources, or a violation that could impact those services required to meet the needs of persons in care.

PLANS OF CORRECTION (POCs) The licensing agency is required to establish a reasonable length of time to correct a deficiency. In order to set the time, the licensing agency must take into consideration the seriousness of the violation, the number of persons in care involved, and the availability of equipment and personnel necessary to correct the violation. Applicants/licensees are requested to provide a specific plan for each violation on the right side of the form across from each deficiency. The more specific the plan, the less chance exists for any misunderstanding in setting time limits and reviewing corrections. The applicant/licensee who encounters problems beyond their control in completing the corrections within the specified time frame may request and may be granted an extension of the correction due date by the licensing agency.

CORRECTION NOTIFICATION The applicant/licensee is responsible for completing all corrections and promptly notifying the licensing agency of corrections. Applicants/licensees are advised to keep a dated copy of any correspondence sent to the licensing agency concerning corrections, or if corrections are telephoned to the licensing agency, the date, person contacted, and information given.

CIVIL PENALTIES The licensing agency is required by law to issue a Penalty Notice, when applicable, to all facilities holding a license issued by the licensing agency, or subject to licensure, except Certified Family Homes, Resource Families, and Foster Family Homes, or any governmental entity.

PENALTY NOTICE GIVEN The statement concerning civil penalties serves as a penalty notice on this Licensing Report and failure to correct cited licensing deficiencies will result in civil penalties. Applicants/ licensees are required to pay civil penalties when administrative appeals have been exhausted and in accordance with any payment arrangements made with the licensing agency.

APPEAL RIGHTS The applicant/licensee has a right without prejudice to discuss any disagreement in this report with the licensing agency concerning the proper application of licensing requirements. The applicant/ licensee may request a formal review by the licensing agency to amend or dismiss the notice of deficiency and/ or civil penalty. Requests for review shall be made in writing within 15 business days of receipt of a deficiency notification or civil penalty assessment. Licensing deficiencies may be appealed pursuant to the procedures in the LIC 9058 Applicant/Licensee Rights.

AGENCY REVIEW The licensing agency review of an appeal may be conducted based upon information provided in writing by the applicant/licensee. The applicant/licensee may request an office meeting to provide additional information. The applicant/licensee will be notified in writing of the results of the agency review within 60 business days of the date when all necessary information has been provided to the licensing agency.

EMAIL REQUIREMENT Adult Community Care Facilities, Residential Care Facilities for the Chronically Ill, and Residential Care Facilities for the Elderly are required to provide and maintain an active email address of record with the licensing agency.

The designee failed to comply with the Health and Safety Code, and no application was submitted to the Department as required. The Department made multiple attempts by phone and email to verify whether the designee had submitted the application as planned and discussed during the office meeting.

While the Department continued making unsuccessful attempts to contact the designee assigned to operate the facility under emergency circumstances, LPA Smith conducted the required annual visits on 12/15/2025 and 02/06/2026. During these visits, the facility was found to be in major noncompliance with Title 22 Regulations. Four (4) Type A and eight (8) Type B citations were issued. The designee, who is the licensee’s sister, was not present due to being out of the country.

Additional licensing visits were conducted to follow up on unpaid licensing fees, the status of the new application, and notice of no working air conditioner at the facility. During these visits, LPA Smith communicated with facility staff, as the designee was never present at the facility and had to be called to come to the facility. During one of the visits, LPA Smith was informed that Ms Cesicar, had stepped down and was no longer interested in assuming responsibility for the facility.

Between November 2025 and January 2026, the Woodland Hills South Regional Office received no information regarding a change of ownership. On or around January 5, the Department was informed by Ms. Cesicar that a change-of-ownership application had been submitted to the Centralized Applications Bureau (CAB) in Sacramento; however, no proof of submission was provided.

A review of licensing records confirmed that no documentation had been received to verify that an application was submitted. Between November 2025 and March 2026, the Department conducted multiple licensing visits, during which the facility continued to be found in major noncompliance with Title 22 Regulations. A meeting was scheduled with the prospective applicant, Ms. Cesicar, but she was unable to attend due to being out of the country.

On 03/18/2026, the Department was notified by Ms. C that she would no longer be pursuing the takeover of the facility. She further stated that the current application had been submitted by a family friend, although she was unsure of the name under which the new facility was filed. A review of Licensing Records revealed that a new application had been submitted under Comfort Care Homes Facility # 197611002, on 01/08/2026.

The designee, Ms. Cesicar, was informed that due to ongoing noncompliance with Licensing Regulations, as well as failure to meet the conditions specified in Health and Safety Code §1569.193(a)(2) and Title 22 Regulations §87111(4) and (5), she did not demonstrate the ability to operate the facility. As a result, the Emergency Approval to Operate (EAO) is no longer valid, the facility license is forfeited, and the facility is now operating without a license.

Ms. Cesicar was also advised that the continued noncompliance with applicable laws and regulations placed the health and safety of the facility’s residents at risk. Staff disclosed to LPA Smith at this visit that Reynaldo Ceasar informed them that the facility is closing and residents will be relocated.
