- The most recent inspection on October 9, 2024, found the facility in compliance with all regulations and no new deficiencies. Prior to that, the September 24, 2024 inspection identified deficiencies related to incomplete negotiated service agreements, medication storage issues, incomplete incident documentation, and failure to conduct quarterly emergency management plan reviews. Earlier complaint investigations included a substantiated case in February 2022 involving medication administration practices, and prior reports noted recurring issues with functional capacity screenings, documentation, and emergency preparedness. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports.
