An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection-related report for Oxbow Living Center, dated March 28, 2025, showed no deficiencies and confirmed the renewal of the facility’s assisted-living license with Alzheimer’s special care and memory care endorsements. Earlier inspections were mostly documentation reviews and license renewals with no cited deficiencies, except for a complaint investigation in 2017 that found the facility in compliance with medication administration and staffing requirements. One prior complaint investigation in 2014 identified a deficiency related to dietary staff not following proper hand washing and glove use procedures, but no enforcement actions or fines were listed in the available reports. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated, and no license suspensions or fines were noted. The inspection history suggests the facility has maintained compliance with regulatory requirements and shows improvement since the isolated deficiency found in 2014.
