Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspections on January 22, 2026, included deficiencies that resulted in monetary penalties totaling $10,000, all of which have been paid in full. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of citations related to medication administration, resident rights, environmental standards, personnel qualifications, and documentation, with multiple enforcement actions and fines issued over time. Inspectors frequently cited issues with opioid prescribing and administration, failure to maintain clean and safe premises, and inadequate staff training or certification. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated or did not result in additional enforcement beyond the cited deficiencies. The facility’s record shows ongoing challenges with compliance, as recent enforcement actions reflect repeated and similar issues noted in prior inspections.
