Inspection Reports Summary Info An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.

The most recent inspection on February 12, 2024, found the facility not in substantial compliance due to deficiencies related to licensing contracts, resident rights documentation, and medication management. Earlier inspections were not provided for comparison, so broader patterns cannot be determined from the available information. Inspectors cited issues with missing required contract attachments, lack of current consent forms, improper separation of external and internal medications, and failure to remove expired or discontinued medications. No complaint investigations or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. Without additional data, it is unclear whether these issues represent a new or ongoing trend.
