Most inspections found no deficiencies, and several complaint investigations were unsubstantiated, indicating generally good compliance. The most recent report from September 4, 2025, was a complaint investigation that found no deficiencies and did not substantiate the allegation about air conditioning issues. Earlier reports showed isolated deficiencies, including a substantiated failure in April 2025 to provide authorized representatives with copies of residents' files within the required timeframe, and past issues with the air conditioning system in 2022 and 2024 that were eventually resolved. There were also medication documentation and chemical storage deficiencies cited in November 2023, but no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Overall, the facility’s compliance appears to have improved over time, with recent investigations showing no deficiencies.
The visit was an unannounced complaint investigation triggered by an allegation that staff did not ensure the air conditioner was working properly, resulting in the facility not being kept at a comfortable temperature.

The investigation included facility inspection, staff and resident interviews, and document review.
