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 January 18, 2024, identified deficiencies related to the facility’s failure to provide annual tuberculosis risk assessments for residents and staff, and lack of evidence for a required quality review program. Earlier inspections showed a substantiated complaint investigation in December 2022 for not properly investigating and reporting an injury after a resident altercation. Prior reports did not list enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions. The main themes of deficiencies have involved documentation and compliance with regulatory requirements for health assessments and incident reviews. The pattern suggests ongoing challenges in meeting certain administrative and reporting standards without clear improvement or worsening over time.
