Inspection History

In Wisconsin, the Department of Health Services, Division of Quality Assurance performs unannounced onsite surveys to ensure that long-term care facilities meet health and safety laws.

Inspection Report Summary for Brookdale Sun Prairie

The most recent inspection report dated August 18, 2025, found deficiencies at Brookdale Sun Prairie and imposed a $1,000 fine related to medication administration, health monitoring, and documentation issues. The facility was ordered to comply immediately with requirements, including ensuring residents receive prescribed medications and staff receive appropriate training. Previous reports show a recurring pattern of deficiencies, especially in employee tuberculosis screening, medication management, health monitoring, and maintaining a safe, clean environment. Earlier inspections in 2023 and 2024 also cited similar issues, including failure to screen employees for communicable diseases, incomplete resident assessments after falls, missed psychotropic medication reviews, and environmental cleanliness problems. While a few verification visits in late 2023 and early 2024 found no deficiencies, the overall trend indicates ongoing challenges with compliance, particularly in infection control, medication management, resident care, and environment/safety.
