An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on April 24, 2025, identified multiple deficiencies including incomplete advocacy agency contact information, failure to notify physicians of abnormal blood sugars, incomplete dementia training for new staff, missing signed job descriptions, incomplete service plans, and unsanitary food storage and preparation practices. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues related to medication administration, notification of abnormal blood sugars, infection control, and documentation, with a substantiated complaint in April 2025 regarding unqualified personnel administering medications. Complaint investigations from prior years were mostly unsubstantiated or found no deficiencies related to the allegations. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history reflects ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, particularly in medication management, staff training, and food safety, without a clear trend of improvement or worsening.
