Overview of True Care Living

True Care Living is a 147-bed facility located at 565 General Ave in Springfield, Calhoun County, Michigan. The operator is True Care Living Limited Liability Corporation, with Eliyahu Gabay listed as authorized administrator.

The regulatory history presents substantial concerns. Over four years since 2021, the facility accumulated 25 deficiencies at a rate of 6.3 annually, 213% above Michigan’s 1.6-per-year average. The October 28, 2024, renewal inspection found nine deficiencies: incomplete incident reporting, inadequate on-duty staffing, missing annual training records, improper medication supervision, unsanitary kitchen conditions, blank dishwasher sanitization logs, unlabeled food items, ceiling and mold damage in common areas, and hazardous materials stored within resident reach.

A substantiated complaint investigation on October 3, 2024, documented a resident fall where the individual was left unattended in the lobby, received medication not documented on the active medication list, and the incident was never recorded. An earlier complaint on March 28, 2024, substantiated violations including residents unprotected during drywall repairs from water damage and shower water temperature measuring 82 degrees Fahrenheit, far below the 105 to 120-degree requirement.

Earlier investigations identified a chronic bed bug infestation (January 2023), residents denied prescribed medications (October 2022), and improper hazardous material storage (February 2023). Tuberculosis screening documentation was incomplete at the September 2023 renewal. The pattern reflects deficiencies in medication administration, incident documentation, resident supervision, infection control, safety protocols, and building maintenance without demonstrable improvement over four years.

Occupancy stands at 23 percent as of October 2024, down substantially from prior levels. No fines or license suspensions have been recorded. The license.

The pattern of violations across medication, incident reporting, safety, and sanitation over four years warrants direct questions about corrective actions and current staffing protocols before placement.

Families should note the facility’s documentation failures, medication administration lapses, and inadequate resident supervision, particularly the October 2024 substantiated incident.
