Back to Facility ProfileInspection Report Summary
The most recent inspection on October 15, 2025, found no deficiencies during the recertification visit.

Inspectors cited issues such as failure to complete dependent adult abuse training, incomplete abuse record checks before employment, and one substantiated complaint involving unauthorized staff visits and an inappropriate relationship with a tenant. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for the substantiated case in June 2024, which led to staff termination.
