Inspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on April 22, 2025, found deficiencies related to an incomplete service agreement missing required elements such as frequency, duration, charges, and client rights language. Earlier inspections showed a broader range of documentation issues involving client referrals, personnel records, tuberculosis screening, employee qualifications, nursing assessments, supervisory visits, and service plan content and timeliness. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Complaint investigations were not noted in any of the reports. The inspection history shows some improvement since the initial licensing inspection, with fewer and more focused deficiencies in the latest review.
