Inspection Report Summary

The most recent inspection on October 17, 2024, found the facility in compliance with all regulations and no new deficiencies. Earlier in October 2024, inspectors cited issues including inadequate training and delegation for medication aides, incomplete resident assessments, insufficient documentation, and an emergency management plan lacking provisions for missing residents. Prior inspections noted deficiencies related to service agreements and medication destruction documentation, but no fines or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Complaint investigations were attached to some inspections, with deficiencies substantiated in the October 2024 and February 2023 surveys, while earlier complaints were unsubstantiated. The facility appears to have addressed prior deficiencies effectively, as shown by the most recent clean follow-up inspection.
