Inspection Report Summary for Cheney Golden Age Home

The most recent inspection on December 26, 2024, found the facility in compliance with all regulations and no new deficiencies. Prior inspections showed multiple deficiencies related mainly to resident dignity and privacy, care plan revisions, fall prevention, nurse aide performance reviews, staffing data accuracy, and infection control practices. Complaint investigations generally resulted in substantiated findings involving care planning, notification procedures, and infection control, but fines or license actions were not listed in the available reports. Earlier surveys identified issues with medication management, sanitary conditions, and respiratory care, including a substantiated immediate jeopardy finding in October 2020 related to COVID-19 infection control. The correction of all cited deficiencies by the latest inspection indicates improvement in compliance over time.
