Complaint Investigation
Census: 4

Citations: 0
Date: Mar 12, 2026
Visit Reason
An unannounced complaint investigation visit was conducted in response to allegations of neglect, staff providing care beyond the scope of the license, failure to provide linens, unmet toileting needs, and lack of daily activities for residents.
Complaint Details
The complaint involved multiple allegations including neglect resulting in pressure injuries, staff providing wound care beyond their license, failure to provide linens, unmet toileting needs, and lack of daily activities. The investigation was unsubstantiated due to lack of preponderance of evidence.
Findings
The investigation found insufficient evidence to substantiate the allegations. Staff interviews and resident statements indicated that wound care was provided by home health, linens were provided as needed, residents were rotated regularly, toileting needs were met, and activities were offered though residents often chose not to participate. Therefore, the allegations were deemed unsubstantiated.
