Inspection Report Summary for Diversicare of Council Grove

The most recent inspection on August 19, 2025, found no deficiencies and confirmed the facility was in compliance with all regulations. Prior inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related primarily to resident privacy during care, wound care quality, infection prevention and control, and environmental cleanliness, including pest control issues. Several complaint investigations substantiated concerns about dignity, wound care complications, and discharge documentation, but enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. Earlier serious findings included an immediate jeopardy related to failure to provide CPR in 2018 and elopement risks in 2016, both of which were addressed with corrective plans. The recent clean inspections following earlier citations suggest the facility has made improvements over time in addressing prior deficiencies.
