Inspection Report Summary for Life Care Center of Rochester
The most recent inspection on December 3, 2024, found the facility in compliance with Emergency Preparedness and Life Safety Code requirements, with no deficiencies noted. Prior inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to emergency preparedness, life safety code compliance, resident supervision, care planning, medication management, and sanitary conditions. Complaint investigations included substantiated findings for inadequate supervision leading to inappropriate resident behavior and issues with food service and environmental cleanliness, but many complaints were found unsubstantiated or compliant upon review. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have addressed several prior deficiencies, as recent follow-up inspections showed compliance with previously cited areas.
