Inspection Report Summary for Bickford of Sioux City

The most recent inspection on August 7, 2025, found no deficiencies during the recertification visit and complaint investigation. Earlier inspections showed a mixed pattern, with some citations related primarily to service plan updates, transportation supervision, pest control, and staff training in dementia care. Complaint investigations occasionally substantiated issues such as failure to update service plans after health changes and lapses in transportation policy adherence, but no fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. Most complaints were unsubstantiated, and enforcement actions were limited to a single $500 fine in 2010 for delayed background checks. The facility’s record shows improvement over time, with recent inspections free of deficiencies following earlier citations in care planning and staff education.
