Overview of Sage Grove Assisted Living
Sage Grove Assisted Living is a 32-bed community located at 290 North 4064 East in Rigby, Idaho. Managed by Sage Grove Management, LLC, with Amy Rackham as administrator, this Jefferson County facility has provided assisted living, memory care, and short-term stays since 2015. The campus consists of two buildings situated approximately 12 miles outside of Rexburg with a Walk Score of 68.
State regulatory data from the Idaho Bureau of Facility Standards shows a citations-per-inspection rate of 7.0, which is 17% above the Idaho state average. A July 2024 inspection identified 16 deficiencies, including unsecured toxic chemicals, missing staff training records, and lack of medication availability. Documentation gaps were also noted regarding fire drills, psychotropic medication reviews, and pre-admission physical assessments. No fines or immediate jeopardy findings are currently on record, though the facility maintains its Medicaid-contracted status.
Clinical services focus on independence while providing 24-hour oversight for residents with cognitive impairments. However, recent surveys identified concerns such as missed medication doses and unmonitored medication refrigerator temperatures. The 2024 report further found that both buildings lacked a fully secure environment for residents at risk of elopement and noted instances where staff administered medication without proper nursing delegation.
The facility provides a residential setting for seniors in Jefferson County, located approximately 1.2 miles from Idaho Drug and Madison Memorial Hospital. While specific amenity packages should be confirmed directly with the community, the facility provides daily housekeeping, laundry, and fresh meals. The social calendar typically includes crafts, fitness classes, and puzzles, though 2024 findings noted a lack of formal behavior plans for residents exhibiting aggression or elopement attempts.
Families considering Sage Grove Assisted Living should ask the administrator for proof of corrective actions regarding the 16 deficiencies cited in the July 2024 survey. It is particularly important to verify the status of elopement security in both buildings and request documentation of current staff training and medication management protocols.
