Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on March 21, 2025, identified a deficiency related to securing a controlled narcotic medication during administration. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving medication management, resident care such as skin condition assessments and individualized activities, and documentation issues including timely reporting and care planning. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated, though some substantiated complaints resulted in citations for medication mismanagement and failure to notify responsible parties after resident transfers. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history shows ongoing challenges with medication and care processes, with some improvements in complaint compliance but recurring issues over time.
