An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on June 8, 2020, was a COVID offsite surveillance and did not cite any deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a mix of results, with some deficiencies related mainly to staff training and emergency preparedness, such as failure to ensure all staff received first aid training and issues with fire protection systems and emergency number postings. Complaint investigations in 2015 and 2009 found substantiated issues, including staff training gaps and failure to hold required team meetings for residents needing nursing services, but no enforcement actions or fines were listed in the available reports. Most complaints were unsubstantiated or resulted in minor citations without further enforcement. The inspection history suggests that while some compliance issues appeared in the past, recent reviews have not identified deficiencies, indicating improvement over time.
