Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to immunization documentation, resident care planning, medication management, food handling, and sanitation practices. Complaint investigations from 2014 and 2015 identified issues with fall prevention, medication oversight, and care plan updates, some of which were substantiated and addressed through plans of correction. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have made improvements over time, with repeated revisits confirming correction of prior deficiencies.
