In Mississippi, the State Department of Health, Bureau of Health Facilities Licensure conducts unannounced surveys to monitor facility compliance with health, safety, and resident rights laws.
Deficiencies indicate regulatory issues. A higher number implies the facility had several areas requiring improvement.
Mississippi average: 45 deficiencies
The most recent inspections on January 27, 2026, involved three complaint investigations related to abuse, neglect, resident rights, and pressure sores, with no deficiencies cited. Earlier inspections showed a mixed history, including a significant annual survey in May 2025 that cited multiple deficiencies related to staffing shortages during shift changes, food safety and storage issues, and maintenance concerns affecting the homelike environment. Prior complaint investigations generally found no deficiencies, though a substantiated complaint in March 2025 identified a failure to provide timely and effective pain management for a resident, resulting in harm. The facility has not faced fines, immediate jeopardy, or license actions in recent reports, and most complaints were unsubstantiated except for isolated cases involving care and staffing. The trend suggests improvement since the May 2025 survey, with recent complaint investigations showing compliance and no new deficiencies cited.
