Inspection Report Summary for Citrus Place
Most inspections found no deficiencies, and several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, indicating generally good compliance with regulations.

The facility also received citations for failing to maintain safe accommodations during repairs and for medication refill lapses resulting in missed doses. The most recent report from March 4, 2025, found a deficiency involving medication mismanagement that caused resident hospitalization. While there is no clear overall trend, recent reports show some serious issues alongside many unsubstantiated complaints and isolated deficiencies.
