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 April 7, 2021, substantiated a complaint but cited no deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of compliance with infection control and emergency preparedness regulations, though a February 3, 2021 complaint investigation found a deficiency related to failure to protect a resident from physical abuse by a staff member, resulting in injury and staff termination. Prior reports from late 2018 documented deficiencies mainly involving nutrition and dietary services, kitchen sanitation, medical record completeness, and life safety code violations related to fire safety equipment and building maintenance. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated or found no deficiencies, except for the noted abuse case and some substantiated complaints without resulting citations. The facility appears to have addressed earlier deficiencies, with more recent inspections showing fewer issues aside from the isolated abuse finding.
