Since its initial licensing, the facility has undergone two major reviews, recording an annual deficiency average 93% lower than the state benchmark. While the May 2024 certification resulted in a citations-per-inspection rate of zero, a July 2025 survey identified two moderate deficiencies. These findings involved medication administration timing and outdated service plans, though no fines or enforcement actions were issued.Clinical care is delivered by a 24-hour on-site team providing a range of support from independent living to specialized “enhanced living” for residents with cognitive impairment.

Professional services include medication management, health monitoring, and non-ambulatory care for those with significant mobility needs. The community also offers respite care and short-stay options for families requiring temporary assistance. Residents have access to an emergency alert system and personalized care plans reviewed by the clinical leadership team. The residential environment features spacious home designs within a maintenance-free setting.

Interested families seeking a modern community with flexible care tiers and a high baseline of regulatory compliance may find this setting appropriate. Families should ask directly about the corrective steps taken following the 2025 medication timing citation and confirm current nurse-to-resident ratios for the “enhanced living” neighborhood before making a final decision.
