The most recent inspection-related document from February 26, 2020, was a licensure renewal application and related certification confirming Crest View Care Center met statutory requirements with no deficiencies noted. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies primarily related to care planning, medication management, infection control, and fire safety issues. Complaint investigations generally found most allegations unsubstantiated, though a 2015 investigation substantiated failures to protect residents from injury and misappropriation of funds. Enforcement actions include a 2026 probation notice for failure to identify fall risks and implement interventions, with no fines or license suspensions listed in the available reports. The facility’s inspection history shows ongoing challenges with regulatory compliance, with some improvement in recent years as the latest renewal had no cited deficiencies.
