On this day, Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Kevin Saborit-Guasch delivered findings via email and certified mail to the licensee formerly operating VILLAS BY DOCTOR ROYA – license # 306006128. License is no longer active. Location is now licensed as ARISE HOMES 2 – 306006397 as of March 18, 2024. Former licensee and administrator Roya Jafari-Hassad is no longer associated with the present residential care facility for the elderly in operation at the address.

The initial investigation visit was conducted on March 30, 2023. On that day, LPA Celine Rodriguez contacted facility administrator Roya Jafari Hassad via phone call and explained the reason for visit. Administrator was unable to assist in person. During the visit, LPA walked around the exterior portion of the facility and observed that the facility appeared to be empty with no residents and no staff present. Four additional witness interviews were conducted during the investigation.

CONTINUED FROM FORM LIC9099

Per a review of the Guardian Background Check System, administrator Roya Jafari-Hassad has been separated from the license 306006128 as of May 14, 2024, and is no longer actively associated with any other facilities in California.

Per a press release on the Drug Enforcement Agency’s website dated December 14, 2022 “an 18-count indictment was returned charging Dr. Roya Jafari-Hassad with illegal distribution of oxycodone and witness tampering”. Per another press release from the federal Department of Justice dated December 11, 2024, “A federal jury in Central Islip returned a guilty verdict today against Roya Jafari-Hassad, a medical doctor with a practice in Great Neck, Long Island, on eight counts of a second superseding indictment charging her with prescribing oxycodone pills without a legitimate medical purpose. The verdict followed a 10-day trial before United States District Judge Gary R. Brown. When sentenced, Dr. Jafari-Hassad faces up to 20 years in prison on each count.

Additionally, an administrative decision by the New York State Department of Health details an Interim Order of Conditions effective March 13, 2023, and issued by the New York State Board for Professional Medical Conduct posing among other conditions that Mrs. Jafari-Hassad is precluded from prescribing, administering, dispensing, distributing and/or ordering any controlled substances and all non-controlled mood-altering medications in any setting or jurisdiction where her practice is predicated upon her New York State medical license. Jafari-Hassad agreed in writing to the terms of the above Interim Order of Conditions.

As a result, the allegation that the licensee /administrator engaged in crimes that are regarded as Conduct Inimical is found to be Substantiated, meaning that based on interviews conducted, observation, and record review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met.

A type A citation is issued on the attached form LIC9099-D per Title 22 Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations.
