Inspection Report Summary

Most inspections found deficiencies related to safety and medication management, including unlocked knives and insulin accessible to residents, locked gates restricting resident rights, and outdated or missing medical documentation. The facility received civil penalties and was required to submit plans of correction after the January 7, 2025 annual inspection, which cited several health and safety risks such as unsafe storage and inaccurate medication records. Earlier reports also noted issues with infection control and environmental hazards like mold and clutter, though the May 16, 2022 inspection included immediate health and safety concerns. The most recent report from January 30, 2025 did not identify new deficiencies but confirmed ongoing challenges with insulin management for a resident requiring staff assistance. Several complaint investigations were not listed, and there is no indication of license suspension or fines beyond those noted in January 2025.
