The most recent inspection on October 23, 2025, found the facility to be in substantial compliance following a complaint investigation with no deficiencies cited. Earlier inspections showed a mixed record, including a 2023 substantiated complaint involving staff abuse and insufficient nursing staff, as well as a 2024 citation for failure to safeguard resident-identifiable information. Prior deficiencies primarily involved resident care issues such as abuse prevention, staffing levels, and documentation, along with some infection control and privacy concerns. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for the 2023 abuse-related case, which led to staff termination and corrective actions. The facility’s inspection history shows improvement over time, with recent surveys indicating compliance and no enforcement actions listed in the available reports.
