The most recent inspection on October 8, 2025, found the facility in compliance with relevant assisted living regulations and identified no deficiencies. Earlier inspections, however, noted several issues including repeated failures to conduct and document tornado and fire drills, incomplete physician assessments, inadequate service plans, and food service sanitation violations. A complaint investigation in December 2024 substantiated deficiencies related to service plan development and updates following a resident incident, though no charges resulted from the related police investigation. The facility was fined $3,250 in June 2025 for these regulatory violations. The inspection history shows improvement with the latest survey finding no deficiencies after prior reports cited multiple issues.
