Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

Most inspections found no deficiencies, including the most recent report dated April 22, 2025, which identified staffing shortages affecting medication administration and memory care coverage. Earlier reports showed isolated issues such as resident mistreatment, delayed medical response after a fall, and medication refill delays, with some substantiated complaints leading to staff terminations. There was a serious event in February 2022 involving a resident fall from a van lift that caused injury and death, along with regulatory failures related to memory care certification and medication management. Several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, reflecting a number of concerns that did not result in violations. The facility’s record shows some improvement in staffing and medication practices over time, though occasional serious issues have occurred.
