The most recent inspection on July 9, 2025, found no deficiencies related to staffing and supervision following a complaint investigation. Earlier inspections showed some deficiencies, mainly involving failure to report major incidents and suspected abuse in a timely manner, as well as issues with resident care notifications and fire drill compliance. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, except for one substantiated case in late 2024 involving incomplete reporting of a resident-to-resident injury. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows some recurring issues with reporting and communication, but recent inspections indicate improvement in compliance.
