The most recent inspection on June 30, 2025, found no deficiencies related to complaint investigations. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily involving Life Safety Code compliance, such as door closures, fire safety equipment, and electrical protections, as well as issues with resident care documentation and medication management. A substantiated complaint in November 2023 cited improper use of physical restraints, resulting in staff re-education and termination, but no fines or license actions were listed in the available reports. Most complaint investigations were unsubstantiated or found no related deficiencies. The facility’s recent inspections indicate improvement in compliance, particularly with no deficiencies noted in the latest complaint investigations and follow-up surveys confirming correction of prior Life Safety Code issues.
