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 March 20, 2025, found no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to resident care communication, such as failure to notify hospice after a resident’s fall, and safety issues including inadequate staffing and incomplete fire drills. Some complaints were substantiated, including mold and water damage affecting resident well-being and failure to report a serious injury requiring hospital treatment. Most complaint investigations without deficiencies were unsubstantiated, and no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The overall trend suggests some improvement, with the most recent inspection showing no deficiencies after a period of mixed findings.
