Inspection Report Summary for Friendly Home

During the reporting period, comprising 16 standard health citations and 5 life safety code citations. These citations were identified across seven inspections that resulted in citations, while eight additional inspections concluded with no citations. The citation totals reflect the overall regulatory findings for the facility over the period from August 1, 2021 to July 31, 2025.

The inspection that generated the largest number of cited items occurred on December 26, 2023, a certification survey. This inspection identified nine citations: six standard health deficiencies—including the development and implementation of abuse/neglect policies, ensuring essential equipment is in safe operating condition, preventing decreases in resident mobility, strengthening infection prevention and control, labeling and storing drugs and biologicals, and managing tube feeding to restore eating skills—and three life safety deficiencies related to aisle, corridor, or ramp width, corridor door configuration, and electrical equipment testing and maintenance. These findings highlight significant concerns in both resident safety and environmental safeguards.

Complaint metrics for the same period show that the facility received 51 complaints, equating to 26.5 complaints per 100 occupied beds. Eighty percent of these complaints represented facility‑reported incidents, and 16 complaint‑related on‑site inspections were conducted. Five citations were issued in connection with complaints, yielding a rate of 2.6 citations per 100 occupied beds. When broken down by category, complaint‑related citations totaled four: one in the quality‑of‑care category, two in resident‑rights, and one in other services; no citations were recorded for administration, dietary services, or physical environment. The category totals do not sum to the stated total of five complaint‑related citations, indicating a discrepancy in the reported figures.

Enforcement actions during the reporting period were nonexistent; the facility experienced no enforcement actions against its operator from September 1, 2015 through August 31, 2025.
