T.l.c. Adult Care Center
T.L.C. Adult Care Center is a recently opened personal care home in West Newton, Pennsylvania, that has 24-hour staffing. Open for approximately one year in a moderately walkable area on Rio Vista Drive, the community maintains an occupancy rate of 87%. A selection of meal choices is also provided throughout the day as part of daily care services for older adults.
Since opening, state inspections have identified ongoing concerns related to resident safety, allegations of mistreatment, medication administration practices, medical assessments, staff training, and incident reporting procedures.
Complaint investigations have also confirmed instances of resident mistreatment. Notably, these operational challenges have persisted despite corrective action plans.
T.L.C. Adult Care Center encourages families to gather detailed information about its services, policies, and improvement initiatives, especially since the community has shown a repetitive pattern of issues.
