  • The most recent inspection on November 18, 2025, found no deficiencies following a licensure resurvey and complaint investigation. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related primarily to resident care, including protection from abuse, dementia staff training, medication management, and safety practices such as food handling and chemical storage. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, with the exception of a substantiated case in March 2025 involving immediate jeopardy due to failure to protect residents from abuse and elopement risks. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have made improvements over time, correcting previously cited deficiencies in follow-up inspections.
