Inspection Reports Summary An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on February 5, 2026, included enforcement action with a $500 fine that has been paid in full. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to exceeding licensed capacity and failure to secure toxic materials, as well as ongoing issues with personnel record-keeping, including missing CPR training documentation. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, with one substantiated case involving personnel records that led to corrective action. Enforcement actions included multiple fines totaling several thousand dollars but no license suspensions or immediate jeopardy findings were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows repeated citations for similar issues over time, indicating ongoing challenges rather than clear improvement.
