Inspection Reports Summary An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on October 13, 2025, found deficiencies related to medication service violations and resulted in a civil fine. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of medication administration issues, failure to report incidents, and problems responding to residents’ calls for help, with some deficiencies recurring and leading to fines. Inspectors cited medication management and communication failures as main themes, along with issues in call system alerts and reporting suspected abuse. Several complaint investigations were substantiated, including medication errors that placed residents at risk and a failure to report suspected sexual abuse; fines were imposed but license suspensions or revocations were not listed in the available reports. The facility showed periods of correction with some follow-up inspections finding no deficiencies, but recent inspections indicate ongoing challenges in medication safety and regulatory compliance.
