The most recent inspection on June 19, 2025, found Arbor Grove Village to be in compliance with applicable federal and state regulations and cited no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of Life Safety Code deficiencies related to fire safety issues such as doors failing to close and latch properly, sprinkler system concerns, and smoking policy enforcement, as well as care-related deficiencies including medication management and resident care plan implementation. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for one in June 2023 where inspectors cited a deficiency for failure to implement a person-centered dementia care plan. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have addressed prior deficiencies over time, with recent inspections showing improvement and compliance.
