Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
This facility’s inspection record is mixed, with multiple substantiated deficiencies mainly related to medication management, resident rights, and emergency response failures. The most recent inspection on November 6, 2025, found no deficiencies and substantiated complaints were rare, but prior investigations cited failures to provide prescribed medications, improper emergency response after a resident fall in October 2023, and medication errors in late 2022. Several substantiated complaints also involved admission agreement violations and failure to report inappropriate staff behavior, though annual inspections from 2024 to 2025 showed substantial compliance with no cited deficiencies.
