Inspection Report Summary for Clover Rest Home

The most recent inspection on November 20, 2025, did not identify any deficiencies and focused on informing individuals about privacy practices. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to staffing levels, professional standards of care, and life safety code compliance, including fire safety and emergency preparedness issues. Complaint investigations from prior years included substantiated findings related to infection control practices and staffing shortages, with one immediate jeopardy situation in 2021 due to improper use of personal protective equipment during the COVID-19 pandemic. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows some improvement over time, with the most recent inspection free of deficiencies after a history of mixed compliance.
