Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on January 7, 2025, identified multiple deficiencies related to activities of daily living, food sanitation, accident hazards, resident rights, and fire safety, all of which were corrected by early 2025. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of similar issues, including resident care, safe environment, and fire safety, with all deficiencies addressed within a few months of each survey. Complaint investigations did not result in substantiated complaints or enforcement actions, and no fines or license suspensions were listed in the available reports. Prior reports noted deficiencies in administration, abuse prevention, medication management, and staff vaccination, but these were also corrected promptly. The facility’s inspection history shows recurring issues but consistent correction of deficiencies without enforcement actions.
