Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on July 22, 2025, found that previous deficiencies were corrected and no new deficiencies were identified. Earlier inspections showed several deficiencies related mainly to medication administration, staff response to resident call pendants, and facility safety, including unsecured toxic substances and missing sensitivity testing for smoke detectors. One complaint investigation in February 2025 substantiated issues with staff response times, while other complaints were unsubstantiated or not clearly resolved. The facility received a $550 forfeiture in September 2024 connected to medication and safety violations, but no license suspensions or immediate jeopardy findings were listed in the available reports. The inspection history suggests improvement over time, with the most recent follow-up confirming correction of prior issues.
