Inspection Report Summary for Harbor House Assisted Living

The most recent inspection on July 21, 2025, had no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies mainly related to environmental standards, food service, and resident protections, with some issues also noted in disaster and emergency planning as well as admission and retention standards. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated or found no violations, and no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Prior reports cited deficiencies in resident services and protections, but these were isolated and did not lead to enforcement. The trend suggests improvement over time, with recent inspections showing fewer or no deficiencies compared to earlier years.
