Inspection Report Summary for Bedford Care Center of Hattiesburg

The most recent inspections on November 25, 2025, found no deficiencies during complaint investigations related to facility construction and a resident fall. Earlier inspections showed a mixed record, with the facility addressing prior deficiencies related to resident assessments, care planning, culturally relevant activities, infection control, and Life Safety Code compliance. Main themes of past deficiencies included incomplete resident assessments, failure to implement individualized care plans and activities, infection prevention issues, and Life Safety Code violations such as unsealed hazardous areas and missing emergency generator controls. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, with one substantiated complaint in 2022 for failure to provide scheduled baths, but no fines, immediate jeopardy, or license actions were noted in recent reports. The facility appears to have made improvements since 2024, resolving earlier cited deficiencies and maintaining compliance in the most recent reviews.
