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 July 24, 2025, found no deficiencies during the complaint investigation. However, prior inspections and enforcement reports noted repeated deficiencies related to emergency exit controls and directed care services, including failure to ensure proper means of exiting the facility with alarms and alerts. The facility was fined $750 in June and July 2025 for repeat violations concerning resident egress safety. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated, with no deficiencies found in those cases. The pattern suggests ongoing challenges with exit safety controls despite some complaint investigations showing no issues.
