Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections at this facility were consistently clean, with no deficiencies noted in routine annual visits and several complaint investigations found to be unsubstantiated. However, a complaint investigation in February 2024 substantiated serious deficiencies related to neglect in timely medical care and failure to report an incident, which posed immediate health and safety risks. The facility addressed a Type A deficiency cited during a complaint investigation in October 2025 with a plan of correction that was accepted and cleared. The most recent report from October 7, 2025, had one deficiency related to the prior complaint but showed the issue was resolved. Overall, the facility’s record shows improvement after the serious findings in early 2024, with no new severe issues reported since then.
