Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections were clean, including the most recent annual inspection on February 19, 2024, which found no deficiencies and confirmed the facility was well maintained and safe. However, some complaint investigations in 2024 identified serious issues, including a substantiated physical assault by staff that posed an immediate health and safety risk and a $500 civil penalty for employing a staff member without proper fingerprint clearance. The February 19, 2025 annual inspection cited deficiencies related to medication storage and administration practices, such as unlocked medications and improper record-keeping. These findings suggest some challenges with staff compliance and resident safety, though the facility showed improvement by having a clean report in early 2024 before the later issues arose. Several other complaint investigations were substantiated, indicating isolated but significant concerns rather than widespread problems.
