Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on August 26, 2025, found one deficiency related to the facility’s failure to update work schedules to accurately reflect staffing changes, though the complaint alleging understaffing was not substantiated. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving medication administration errors, incomplete documentation, food storage and sanitation issues, and failure to follow policies after resident incidents, including substantiated complaints about neglect and inadequate incident reporting. Prior complaint investigations also identified failures to protect residents from abuse and lapses in wound care and hygiene. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history shows ongoing challenges with administrative compliance and resident care documentation, with some improvement noted in staffing adequacy but persistent issues in other areas.
