Dayspring Village, Inc
Dayspring Village. is a 126-bed specialized assisted living community focused on serving adults with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorders. The facility provides targeted support aimed at building daily living skills and managing psychiatric symptoms within a peer-based environment. Daily programming includes social outings, gardening, crafts, and games, alongside an annual resident shoe event. Financial coverage is accommodated through the acceptance of Medicaid and Veterans Affairs benefits.
State oversight logs tracking 21 separate visits between September 2012 and October 2025 document 24 total line-item infractions over the community’s history, a volume that sits 27% below the state average. Because 19 of those 21 inspections came back completely clear, the property holds a very high long-term zero citations-per-inspection rate for flawless initial reviews. Older regulatory files from 2012 noted minor marks involving resident care and medication paperwork, which were quickly resolved.
The facility has demonstrated strong compliance consistency in recent years, with four consecutive state evaluations from December 2022 through October 2025 all returning zero deficiencies. Additionally, the operator’s penalty profile is limited to a single $2,000 fine, with no severe enforcement actions on record.
Families looking for a structured residential environment for an adult with complex mental health needs can use these public health records to evaluate the property’s regulatory standing. Since the official data confirms a low long-term citation count and an extended run of perfect state evaluations up through late 2025, the files indicate an attentive and stable management framework. Setting up an on-site visit is an effective next step to look over the campus layout, see the daily routines firsthand, and speak with the team about admissions criteria.
