Inspection Report Summary for Bickford of Clinton
The most recent inspection on October 30, 2025, found no deficiencies during a complaint investigation. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to service plan updates and incident reporting, with some issues involving tenant safety measures such as door alarm policies and retention of tenants with challenging behaviors. A substantiated complaint in October 2024 cited delayed staff response to a tenant elopement and inadequate service plans, while prior investigations noted failures in timely incident documentation and care plan updates. Enforcement actions included a $500 civil penalty in 2012 for multiple regulatory insufficiencies, but no license suspensions or immediate jeopardy findings were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history indicates some recurring challenges with documentation and individualized care planning, though recent reports suggest improvements in compliance.
