An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on November 3, 2025, found no deficiencies, confirming the facility met Assisted Living Facility licensing requirements after correcting prior issues. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to fire safety code violations and lapses in resident care policies, including background checks, tuberculosis testing, and accounting for residents at risk of elopement. Complaint investigations substantiated failures to follow policies for resident falls and elopement risk, resulting in citations but no listed fines or enforcement actions in the available reports. Prior fire safety inspections noted multiple issues with fire doors, alarm systems, and sprinkler maintenance, while earlier follow-ups confirmed corrections of food safety and staff training deficiencies. The trend suggests improvement over time, with the most recent inspection showing no outstanding deficiencies after previous citations.
