Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on November 19, 2025, did not identify any deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies mainly related to medication administration and documentation, including missed doses and incomplete records, as well as sanitation concerns such as strong odors and mold growth. Complaint investigations substantiated issues with medication delivery and recordkeeping, but enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. Most complaints were substantiated, particularly those involving medication and documentation practices. The facility’s inspection history suggests some ongoing challenges with medication management and sanitation, though the absence of deficiencies in the latest report may indicate recent improvements.
