Occupancy remains at 53 percent, significantly below state average, potentially reflecting family and community awareness of documented safety and compliance failures. Taylorsville is in Alexander County in the Foothills region of North Carolina; Catawba Valley Medical Center is the primary nearby acute-care resource.

The facility’s regulatory record reflects systemic deficiencies, with a deficiency rate of 21.8 per year, 319 percent worse than North Carolina average of 5.2. Findings document critical safety failures and substantiated harm to residents.

The May 14, 2025, construction survey identified 14 current deficiencies. The January 8, 2025, annual survey documented failure to report confirmed influenza outbreak affecting 5 residents, resulting in 2 hospitalizations, and involving 2 staff members beginning December 31, 2024. The facility’s historical pattern of serious violations spans a decade. The October 2017 follow-up investigation substantiated 7 serious deficiencies.

The July 2017 complaint investigation documented 14 deficiencies including documented disrespectful treatment of residents.

The April 2017 annual survey revealed 13 serious deficiencies including inadequate supervision of residents with fall history and catastrophic controlled substance discrepancies with staff suspected of diversion. The August 2016 and July 2016 construction and complaint investigations documented additional deficiencies. The February 2016 follow-up found failure to provide minimum 14 hours of weekly activities. The December 2015 annual survey documented 12 deficiencies including inadequate supervision contributing to resident harm, insufficient activities and substantiated controlled drug diversion for 2 residents.

The April 2015 and January 2015 surveys documented additional infection control failures through shared lancet devices, medication administration errors, food contamination, missing table service, improper Schedule II medication storage, and 200 Percocet tablets stolen with staff competency and training gaps. Multiple medication aides and staff were terminated or suspended for suspected controlled substance diversion or regulatory violations.

No fines or license suspensions appear in the record.

Substantiated medication administration failures, massive controlled substance discrepancies totaling over 700 missing doses, documented staff drug diversion, inadequate supervision resulting in resident injuries, fire safety violations, infection control failures including shared blood glucose meters, and systemic staff training gaps create extreme placement risk.

Families should ask about medication administration oversight, infection control, fire safety since May 2025, staff background screening, and corrections implemented since May 2025.
