Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on October 10, 2024, found Camelot Care Center in compliance with Medicare/Medicaid participation and Life Safety Code requirements. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to Life Safety Code issues such as emergency lighting, self-closing hazardous area doors, and sprinkler system maintenance, as well as medication management and room size concerns. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, with one substantiated complaint in August 2024 tied to medication and infection control deficiencies. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The facility appears to have addressed prior deficiencies effectively, as the latest inspection showed no outstanding issues.
