Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on October 28, 2025, identified a deficiency related to the facility’s failure to implement and revise the service plan for a resident with hoarding behaviors. Earlier inspections showed multiple deficiencies, including issues with personnel qualifications such as CPR certification, health care worker background checks, and dementia-specific training, which resulted in a $500 fine. Complaint investigations found one substantiated case of verbal abuse by a care manager that led to termination, while another complaint was substantiated in part due to procedural failures in reporting and following abuse policies. Enforcement actions included the fine mentioned but no license suspensions or immediate jeopardy findings were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows ongoing challenges with staff training and policy compliance, with some recent focus on corrective actions and staff retraining.
